I don't think so. Drinking water, depending on the labeling, can be nothing
more than purified city water--such as City of Miami, Florida, drinking
water. Bleagh! Sometimes it's spring water, better tasting, but still may

Susan, you can get distilled water by the gallon at Wal-Mart. The cost is
about the same as a gallon of drinking water, and the jugs look alike. Read
the label. They sell for less than $/gallon. I buy it all the time to
rinse lace and to use in my steam iron.

Hi Laurie,
I think it is a weaving bobbin winder, the long wooden ones used in the
weaving mills. We have a very similar one that came with our antique sock
knitter - don't know if it was meant for the sock knitter or just adapted
to be used with the sock knitter.
Happy lacing,

It is a rare spinning wheel. It clamps to a shelf and is used like a walking
