The 45" Schacht standard floor loom is a versatile, sturdy jack loom for general weaving and even the occasional rug. It is made to order at the Schacht factory in Boulder, Colorado. You can choose:

• eight harnesses or four now-four later (The four now-four later comes with four harnesses but with the castle capacity to add four more later.)
• maple or cherry wood

All Schacht standard floor looms arrive almost completely assembled, with only the apron bars to be tied on, the heddles slipped onto their bars, and the crank handle installed. Each comes with:

• stainless steel heddle bars
• 1000 inserted eye heddles
• stainless reed of your choice--6, 8, 10, 12, or 15 dent (please enter your choice in the box above)
• 12 treadles
• easy tie-up system with pre-measured cords that slide into a slot from the back of each treadle
• removable breast and back beams for ease in threading
• friction brake on the warp beam and ratchet brake on the cloth beam
• two lease sticks and three apron bars

The basic Schacht floor loom is all many weavers need, but there are several options available for those using special techniques:

• the double back beam, useful for structures which require some warp threads to be controlled under separate tension
• a sectional beam with two-inch sections and an 18-inch circumference
• a maple or cherry bench, available with coordinating bench bags for side storage

Dimensions: 53" wide, 38" deep, 46" tall
Weight: 125 lb. for four now-four later; 141 lb. for eight harness; high castle adds ten pounds to these weights
