TABLE LOOMS

Table Looms are great for classroom use, workshops, sampling, and small projects. They are ideal for learning about four- and eight-shaft pattern weaving, since the direct tie-up through the hand levers allows for infinite experimentation.

Schacht table looms are expertly crafted of the finest hard maple and built for maximum structural stability. Many schools use these table looms and find they weather well after many years of heavy use.

There are fine-toothed nylon gears on both the warp and cloth beams, which allow precise tension control. The front-mounted levers make shaft selection easy to reach with each hand. Front-mounted levers also make it easy to see at a glance which shafts are raised.

Schacht table looms are available in three weaving widths-15", 20", and 25"- with four or eight shafts. The looms come with a carbon steel reed in your choice of 6, 8, 10, 12, or 15 dents. Flat steel heddles, two apron rods, and three lease sticks are also included. A double back beam is available for all table loom widths.

Table Loom with Stand The X-frame floor stand makes this table loom the correct height to be used with a standard chair. Installation is simple - just fit the holes in the base of the loom onto pins in the stand. The floor stand will fit older model table looms by drilling holes in the bottom of the table loom using the drill guide provided.

Flip the Folding Loom
The Feature-full Rigid Heddle Loom


Flip, the new folding rigid heddle loom, is comfortable, compact, sturdy, and a pleasure to weave on. Designed for high performance, this loom folds in a jiffy for storage or transport.

Weave in comfort. Choose three different weaving modes: use the rear leg for hooking to a table edge, clamp it to a table for stand-up weaving, or install it on the convenient trestle stand.

Warp in a flash. Included with Flip, the folding loom, are clamps and a warping peg for direct-loom warping. Included are instructions for both direct and pre-measuring methods.

The top cross brace allows long warps, up to 5-6 yards (depending on weight and winding paper), to be wound on the beams without impacting the size of the shed.

Fine-toothed nylon ratchets provide precise tension control. The conveniently located heddle blocks on the sides of the loom hold the rigid heddle in the up, down, or neutral position. The heddle, available in 8, 10 and 12 dents per inch, is made of durable ABS plastic, with large eyes and slots.

Flip is available in 15”, 20”, and 25” weaving widths, and includes an 8-, 10-, or 12-dent reed, warping peg, 2 shuttles, threading hook, and complete warping and weaving instructions.
