A two-page article explaining how to add a shed regulator to a counterbalanced loom so that unbalanced tie-ups open sheds at an even height. It describes the drawbacks of counterbalanced looms, the principle of the spring-balanced harness hung from an extra roller and tied to the treadles with adjustable cords, and gives a materials list and mounting instructions. Two diagrams show the mechanism and the wooden extension pieces.
