LOCATED IN DAYTON, OH. (Oiriginally) Two Harrisville Designs 36" looms that were combined to make one 8S, 10T Loom. One loom (4S, 4T direct tieup) was made in 1980 (if I remember correctly). The second 4S, 6T HD loom was made in the mid 90s. After cleaning and oiling the wood, then converting the two looms into one, I wove on it for two years and I have been very happy with the results. $1,200 CASH PICKUP in Dayton, OH. I recently purchased a Harrisville Designs 50" 8S, 10T loom and have no room for two looms. NOTE: Combining two looms made this single loom wide enough to add a 9th shaft. The rollers are in place if you would like to add a 9th shaft. Dimensions Folded: As shown folded against the wall in the picture, with the treadles and beater bar removed, approximate dimensions are 19" deep (including sectional beam) x 42" wide x 43" high/tall. The tool tray sitting on top is not included in the approx. dimensions. I WILL NOT sell any of the items separately. For serious buyers only, I will place a sample warp on the loom so you can weave. If you have no interest in buying the loom and only want to see it and/or weave on it, please look elsewhere. INCLUDES: Wire Heddles: Approx. 1,000 Four Reeds: (not from HD, approx 36" length): 12D (might be Stainless Steel, but not sure as I did not see “SS” on the reed), 6D, 10D, 15D. NOTE: The 6D, 10D and 15D all have rust that can be cleaned with naval jelly Harrisville Designs Bobbin Winder (very good condition) Shuttles (very good condition): Three Harrisville Designs approx. 12" boat shuttles with 25-30 wood bobbins, Three Harrisville Designs Rug Shuttles, Five Harrisville Designs Stick Shuttles Three Tool Trays: One Harrisville Designs for the HD 36" 4S loom One handmade tool tray that fits the HD 36" 4S loom. The tool tray on the folded loom was made from left over parts from the loom conversion. Leclerc Warping Board, dismantled (purchased about three years ago). I added additional holes and pegs for winding longer warps. Two Brake Beams: HD Ratchet and pawl sectional which came with the loom. HD Friction Brake Beam Cables: I changed the original lamm and harness cables to Texsolv which I prefer, however, I am including the original lamm cables. Two Beaters: Being that it was originally two looms, there is a second beater which I am also including. Handwoven Magazines: I will include three or four And any other left over parts from the conversion that I still have. Shown are just some of the items I handwove on this loom after converting both looms into a combined 8S, 10T.
