A short 'Shortcuts' article from the Master Weaver on maintaining and improving a handloom. It covers adding a shed regulator to counterbalanced looms, fixing the uneven lower shed of jack-type looms with a stationary dowel or 'shed stop', and adding a second warp beam and take-up. It closes with practical advice on small workshop conveniences, tightening screws, replacing cords, lubrication, rust prevention and wood care. Two diagrams illustrate shed geometry.
