Leclerc

Leclerc was established in 1876, producing weaving tools for weavers from all over the world. Their looms are sturdy, well-built, made of selected kiln dried Canadian hard maple. Looms are shipped knocked down for easier handling; all looms have 6 treadles and include your choice of reed (6, 8, 10 or 12-dent), a heddle hook, 2 lease sticks, 1 boat shuttle, 1 dozen styrene bobbins, the book "Warp and Weave" and instructions. All (except for Compact) come with at least 1,000 wire heddles; if you prefer inserted eye heddles, price is slightly higher. Sectional warp beams allowing the warp to be easily and quickly beamed by one person, are also available. A tension box, yardage counter and bobbin rack to be used with the sectional warp beam are also available. A flying shuttle beater and double warp beam are optional for 45" and wider looms. Leclerc catalog is $3.00.
