REQUEST: Wheel :)

Hi there ppl... Was wondering if anyone could possibly try and make a wheel. Not like a car wheel, more along the lines of a threading wheel. (not sure if such a thing exists) But you know what I mean... those wheels that ppl used to either roll thread on, or take it off to sew. It's for the intro screen on a MUD, so about a screen sized picture would ROCK. Thanx in advance... :) -Jesse

The word you're look for is SPOOL. As in a spool of thread.
Welcome
