Stephenie Gaustad is infinitely patient as Jacey asks her every single question she's ever had about how different drive systems of wheels and how they work. Jacey plays "what if" games including where she names a yarn and Steph tells her which wheels would be best suited; where she asks Steph how to adjust a specific wheel for a particular yarn; and where she names a "type" of spinner and asks what kind of wheel they should have.
