cleverness has always cut it for me. i admire all its manifestations, even smart ass cleverness.
here you can see the placement of the louet raddle; yarns go over the shafts (properly covered with paper) lease sticks in between the raddle and back beam. notice the knobs and the piece of wood underneath locking the raddle.
second option:the raddle is placed behind the
heddles supported on the sides.
the clever wood piece now
lies parallel to the sides locking the reed.
my excitement lies in the fact that i discovered placement nº1 and think i like it more than the regular one. will have to fine tune the system, but so far i like it.
i have two working stations- back and front- with chairs and lights.every so often threaded heddles i walk around to the front and thread the reed thus minimizing errors.what i like about it is that it is a lot gentler with my cervicals and back.and i also add steps to my daily tally. did i say win-win?
Wow...whatever you said. :) Sounds like the voice of experience to me.
