Hi RoriRants, I've been spinning collectively for about 2 years. Started short draw, but long draw is so much more enjoyable. The Fricke is ok. It can go up to a 19:1 ratio, but it can jerk the yarn from your hands sometimes.
RoriRants you might learn to love it if you keep trying. my advice would be get a loose undyed fiber like blue faces leicester, don't worry about lumps and just go for it. trust me, it's not the spinning wheel, it's practice- just like everything else heheh.
How long have you been spinning? WOW! How do you like your Fricke?

I tried the long draw after I saw your video yesterday. Yeah--HAHAHA! I'm a newbie. I have an Ashford Kiwi, but I'm not fond of it at all.
