Simplifying the Tie-up

A 1936 article in which Marjorie Cranmer describes a mechanical system for simplifying treadle-to-lamm tie-ups on a rebuilt eight-harness, ten-treadle jack-type loom. She and her father fitted eye-bolts in the lamms, hooked carriage bolts in the treadles, and a notched steel locking device on each treadle. Ties made of Samson cord with baby snaps connect lamms and treadles without wrench or pliers. The article gives dimensions and hardware sizes, and notes the system suits any treadle loom.
