This is a very nice Shaker wheel walker with nice surface wear on the working end. 7 1/2" and is circa 1840
(. The finger is used to begin or lengthen the turn of the spinning wheel. A person holds the rounded end, and the lip on the other end rests on a spoke in the great
wheel. Apply pressure upward or downward to begin the wheel to spin
- or to accelerate an already spinning wheel - then slip it back into your apron and get spinning.)
