Excerpt from Practice in Weaving and Loom-Fixing: A Complete Manual for the Weave-RoomSunless you have one or two unsightly pieces of picking-stick to brace it down, the chances are that you will have to crawl under the loom very often to tighten the box and bark your knuckles. File across the ribs until your straight-edge shows them to be even, care being taken lest you get them slanting from either side.Fitting the pin - In 'putting the box on, take time enough to fit a good pin through both box and frame, and in such a manner as to draw the box down, so that it fits snug on the top of the frame. This is often carelessly done, and the pin, when holding the box up too high, pre vents it from obtaining a bearing on the top of the frame as well as the side. If this is the case, you cannot keep it tight, no matter how hard you tighten up the bolts. Do the job well, taking time enough for it, and you will save yourself much disagreeable duty.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
