2-1/2-in. and 2-3/4-in. Gauge = 3 ft. 1-1/8 in. over all
3-in. and 3-1/4-in. Gauge = 3 ft. 1-5/8 in. over all
3-1/2-in. and 4-in. Gauge = 3 ft. 2-5/8 in. over all
4-1/2-in. Gauge = 3 ft. 3-3/4 in. over all
5-in. Gauge = 3 ft. 4-1/4 in. over all
5-in. Gauge = 3 ft. 5 in. over all

To ascertain the length of Twisters with any number of spindles: Multiply one-half the number of spindles by the gauge and add 2 ft. 1 in. for head and off ends.

Although it is advantageous when possible to keep to the numbers of spindles given in the table on page 195, other lengths can be built if necessary. Even rolls and boxes are preferable.

DRIVING PULLEYS are 8 in. to 18 in. dia., 3-1/4-in. face.{194}
