this is my favorite shuttle, handmade by hasegawa-san of kyoto. the slanted and relatively pointed ends are ideal for silk. it also feels good in the hand.i believe all the craftsmanship and feelings passed down for generations are embeded in it. it is mind boggling in its simplicity, yet it is functional,;the three eyelets on the side give the appropriate pull to the yarn.
the warping went well, still need to fine tune the new method. however, even a straight draw can present complications. save all your berries containers, they are excellent thread separators for film cans housing correcting ends.
