A practical manual for cotton-mill loom fixers by John Reynolds, instructor at the New Bedford Textile School. It covers adjusting and timing the mechanisms of plain, dobby, leno, box and automatic looms: shedding cams, picking, beating-up, let-off and take-up motions, filling and warp stop motions, temples, dobbies, leno doups, box motions, the Northrop and Stafford looms, and the jacquard machine. It is illustrated with many line drawings of loom parts and includes a few dobby chain drafts. Trade advertisements appear at the back.
