I am looking for plans to build a warping mill.  Not adverse to paying for plans, but I need something I can just hand over to DH and ask him to build.   Does anyone have some or know where I can find them?

Thanks,

Deb in N TX

Thank you all so much!   That is exactly what I was looking for.  I tried to find the original you posted, Michael, but when I couldn't get that link to display, I figured a bump to the topic might get the results.

Has anyone finished making the reel from the directions in Post #3? I would love to see what you did and how it turned out. I don't have tools to do this but may have a new source for helping me soon.

Well, I thought I had offered the link to my plans for making and using a sectional warping machine but it sems to have dissapeared.

Take a look at my website http://www.scorraigweave.com and click Home Made Warping just below the heading.

There is no charge for copying my plan but it would be nice to know how it goes.

Over in "Home Built Equipment" I built one from Edward Worst's plans that I believe I linked to from the internet Archives.

Nicely done.  My wife and I are just getting into weaving.  Bought a used Nilus 4 shaft jack type floor loom and inherited a Beka Rigid Heddle monster which I have already modified. 

Like your chickens in your photo.  just got eight chicks. 

 

Thanks in advance, Bruce

I have 3 looms, 2 of which are rigid heddles that I ahve warped by running fiber across my entire living room. Bonus is both the 10" and 36" are lightweight and easy to move, so it is not a big deal. 

However! I just got a 4 shaft 6 harness Norwood loom and I would like to have the reel made by my amazing partner who has a crafty woodshop.

I see that jlread sent out plans in 2014, and I wonder if they are still out there - somewhere... Sending jlread a DM also. 

Thank you!

Sundaze...

Were you able to find a copy of the plans for this warping mill? I am interesting in getting the info also.

Thanks!
