Nifty Swift!

So i had the same basic idea for a vertical swift but when I went to Home Depot looking for a 5 way tube for mine the guy looked at me like had spiders coming out of my ears. I made the wind mill part and just used it horizontal for a while. It worked okay but mine is 5.5 feet across and takes up all the space in the room while i’m using it. The swift can be seen in action on my blog, I put a video up.

So I went out to Google (wonderful place) and looked for ideas on how to make mine vertical and found your tutorial. Very nice. All the things I was looking for. So I used most of your base and arm idea and i just wanted to take a moment to thank you for the idea. Mine is 8.5 feet tall. Perfect for making huge loops to dye yarn with.

Thanks again,
Ginny

Thanks Gail. I apologize for the mistake about Jen Robinson and have corrected it. I guess that’s what happens when you don’t write a review until a month after seeing the show!

Thanks for your review and beautiful pictures. I’m surprised that you didn’t realize that Todd is on the tour. He joined the tour right after the 2002 Olympics, and we’re very grateful for that, and that he’s still skating in the show! We find he’s very hard to photograph as he moves with such great speed on the ice! One correction for one of your photos. You identified the skater in the yellow dress as Sasha. That pic is actually Jen Robinson. The men’s number at the beginning of Act 2 was “We Got It Goin’ On,” and I agree that was fabulous! Anyway, thanks again for the review and pics.

You should post pictures! That space is so perfect for a nicely arranged pot of flowers. I always kind of wish that I have a “normal” American place, except with Japanese bathrooms, giant sliding doors, and those decoration nooks.

That’s funny, I did exactly the same thing the day before yesterday. Arranging flowers is a suprisingly stress relief. I have one of those little art aloves in the big tatami room to put them in, and the empty space is motivation.
