A 1912 technical manual on the construction, setting, timing and management of tappet and dobby power looms, written by a teacher of weaving at Huddersfield-area technical institutes. Nine chapters cover loom classification and driving, the going part and timing, tappet and dobby shedding, picking, shuttle-box and wefting-plan mechanisms, let-off, take-up and auxiliary motions such as stop-motions, temples and selvage formation. It is illustrated with many line drawings and includes faults and remedies drawn from the author's experience, plus a small number of weave and selvage drafts.
