A monthly archive of the WeaveTech email discussion list for August 1999, preserved as raw messages with mail headers. Threads cover AVL looms (labeling heddle bars, selvedge reels, air compressors and air-assisted lifts, 24-shaft compu-dobby purchases, measuring on an AVL), troubleshooting a Cyrefco CompuMarche, and weaving software such as ProWeave and Fiberworks. Other discussions concern deflected double weave terminology and the final issue of Weaver's magazine, handweaver versus industrial weave nomenclature, weaving linen, hemp and wet-spun flax yarn, doup heddles, crossed warp tubes, Lycra, rolled selvedges and what makes someone a weaver. A few pages contain text-based weaving drafts or diagrams.
