| Spool
rack and original tension box (before the two small shafts were added to
pick up a cross) feeding warp onto one section of the back
beam. |
Redesigned tension box - the front end is very much like the AVL tension box and the rear half is a Louet tension box with the small front raddle removed. |

| Ready
to pick the cross and sley (1). View across the warp beam with one
section of thread passing through the heddles and to a board that holds the cross. |
Ready to pick the cross and sley (2): View from breast beam side. Note that the bout goes through a gap in the heddles . Each thread will be passed behind the heddles on the right and the next heddle will be picked from the right edge of the group. |
 |
 |
| View across the warp beam near the end of sleying. Note crosses tied with black thread in each section remaining to be sleyed (on the left); one bout passing through heddles being sleyed; and the previously sleyed sections kept in order by masking tape across the section dividers. | Closeup of board clamped onto the cloth beam that holds the cross of the section being sleyed. |
