NEW!
 NILUS 36", 45" or 60" JACK-TYPE LOOM
WITH BACK HINGE TREADLES
As with all Loom designs there is some tradeoff. With the Jack Loom the most often cited was the difficulty in getting a good shed with 6+ Shaft weave construction. Our new design has overcome this problem . The new design features the Treadles anchored at the rear of the Loom, with a new, unique, Rocker mechanism that insures even tension on all Treadle Cords with the Treadles in both the rest or depressed position. This new design provides the weaver with the ease of Leg Treadling multi Shaft designs, comparable to  that of a 4 shaft. In addition, we experience a wide , clean shed on all Shafts. By following a new procedure, the new Treadle design retains the folding feature designed into the original Nilus..
