I'm shopping around (mostly online since if they can be found in NYC they are an utter rip-off) and I wanted to know how you like your ball winder. Can it clamp to many surface widths? Is the metal yarn holder arm thingy sturdy? It looks like the Oregon Woodworker has one of the best deals online right now. The one from Joann's got mixed reviews so I'm reluctant to purchase.
