This is my Ashford Traditional, a 1975 model. I picked her up at a second hand store about 8 years ago. just had the wheel spokes tightened by Pinoccio Woodworks here in Sonoma.
We've been having problems with the wheel not rotating smoothly, so we're figuring there is something amiss with the way the crank shaft is bolted to the pitman. I think the bolts holding it on are tightening as it spins. Alfred has the concept down now and is on his way to the hardware store to find options. Problem with the Ashford site is that they don't have specs for this older model that has a different crank shaft than the newer models.
Aren't they both cute! :)
