Hi, I recently acquired a 60+ year old Kessenich 4 shaft/6 treadle loom. I'm pretty new to weaving, as my first loom is an antique handmade with a clever but basic braking system. This "new" one apparently has an issue with the brake slipping. The previous owner said it worked for one project but then they moved houses, and it never worked properly after the move, and she had to improvise a strap. I don't know what it's supposed to look like so I'm at a loss for troubleshooting. Can anyone share a pic of a functional Kessenich brake, or help me see if there's something off with mine?
