An article from Master Weaver (No. 8, March 1953) on building a horizontal warping mill that can double as a beaming drum. It explains why a horizontal reel is preferable to a vertical one, then covers materials (2x2 hardwood, about 60 running feet), construction of the rotating frame and base, and a plywood-disc brake for adjusting tension. It also describes two ways of using the reel for warping and beaming directly to the loom, with a floor-screw anchor and a "gatherer" peg block. Dimensioned drawings accompany the text, and a follow-up on an automatic feed is promised.
