My wife is also a weaver and spinner (why we ended up with sheep for nearly 30 years) from a family of weavers and spinners, although she's been essentially inactive since our first kid, now a 35 year old mom, decided they were climbing toys. Mrs. Moose's oldest sister is a very active weaver with her own dedicated weaving room and an impressive collection of yarn and thread for it.
The Mooselake Manor South's undersized garage shop just gained a Jet 1221SP wood lathe, although it turned out to be too high for the workbench (way taller than the 10x15s at the turners club) and will require an expedition to the lumber store to build a new stand. No bandsaw here either, and any more additions may require their own ceiling suspensions. It joined a little 3018 CNC router whose second test cut was an eccentric Gearotic gear in cardboard (first real project was a plaque with Mrs. Moose's name) that should be suitable for milling PCBs along with wooden gears. The management has cautioned that the shop stocking spree is coming to an end.
Hope you find time before Christmas
