THE LOOM WIZARD

Having trouble setting up your loom?  In a muddle with warping?

It can be so frustrating when all you want to do is start weaving....so....why not call in the Loom Wizard?  I will travel to you to help you to sort out any problems you are experiencing with your loom.  With over 25 years of experience with all types of hand looms (excluding dobby looms) I have set up and fine tuned numerous looms.  I can also help with warping and tie-ups.  

I am prepared to travel within a radius of 50 miles of Midhurst, West Sussex.

1. Berga Finlandia Floor Loom

Four shaft counterbalance loom, recently completely re-corded with Texsolv.  It has a new front beam and comes with two reeds (7 and 12 dents per inch) and many sticks.  It occupies a maximum space of about 5 cubic feet.  The weaving width is a comfortable 36 inches, 90cm.  Every part is clearly labelled, there is an A4 sheet of instructions for assembly.  I found it very easy to assemble and am willing to help the buyer.

I have owned the loom for about four years and I am only selling it to allow me to focus on my eight shaft loom.  I have made rugs, throws, fabric and scarves.  It will cope with 1/3 lifts with individual shaft tie-ups.  

Loom is residing in Chard, Somerset.  Buyer will need an estate type or folding back seat boot to accommodate the loom on collection.  I cannot deliver it.
