Barn frame loom
Wow, sorry, I'm having lots of difficulty uploading this loom info - didn't mean to post three of them! : /
Barn frame loom made in the 1800s in the Appalachian region of the U.S. All joints are mortise-and-tenon with wooden pegs (except the 2 diagonal arms that support the top-most beams). Ox yoke-style overhead beater. Heavy, hand-hewn warp beam with broom-handle tensioner. Just acquired it, and will be working on bringing it back into service this winter making rugs. If it doesn't fall on me and crush me in the meantime. : )

Garage sale special. Who could resist a loom for $50? It's in good shape for its age, with the usual sectional beam, spool rack, 10 dent reed, and two harnesses. Living in the barn, because the house is full already. We had to partially disassemble it to get it up into the barn loft, which is supposed to someday be converted to a studio space.
