$300 · 28" - 4-Shaft Lillstina Convertible Loom

Lillstina 28" 4-Shaft Convertible Loom Made by S. Ekengren in Sweden, likely sometime in the 1970's. Beautifully made of hardwood, and in good working condition. This loom can be used either in table mode or in counterbalanced floor mode. Disassembles and re-assembles easily for transport or storage. This was my first adventure in a 4-shaft loom, and I have been very happy to have it. - 4 shafts either hand-levered or used with the 6 treadles - 27-1/2" weaving width - table width - 31" x 31" - foot print - 31-1/2" front to back; 39" width - 2 reeds - 8 dpi and 12 dpi - swinging beater giving a good angle at the fell line - 497 string heddles, currently distributed as 121, 121, 126, and 129 on shafts 1 to 4 respectively; due to the shaft frame construction it would seem that only string heddles can be used; these are easily made if more are needed from 8/4 cotton or #12 seine twine; they work well $300 obo
