More on that darn spinning wheel

This is why my wheel is fake:

Yes, it does look like it could easily be converted to a working wheel, but that is not the case. That post is GLUED in there! Apparently no one every spun on this wheel - it was made for decoration only. I'm not that sad since I already decided that I wasn't a spinner, but now I have this non-working wheel to deal with. I think I might take it to an antique shop or something and see what I can get for it. I feel really bad for this woman who was in the spinning class that I took who bought a wheel like mine for $350, and the little old man she bought it from claimed his wife spinned on it for years, but it turns out hers is a fake too! Little old man liar!!
