The great advantage of a dobby loom is that it avoids the necessity and the labor involved in making multiple tie-ups to treadle positioned underneath a loom. An investment in a Dobby loom ensures many years of comfortable and productive weaving.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe mechanical dobby is a program bar with pegs system. The numbered holes in the program bars correspond with harnesses of the loom. If you want a harness to be raised, you place a peg in the corresponding hole of the program bar. Your series of program bars can be as long as you like; however, if the number of program bars becomes very large, you may want to consider an electronic dobby. The electronic dobby will give you almost unlimited harness combinations using a computer and software from Fiberworks PCW, Patternland, Weavemaker, Weave It, WeavePoint or Pro Weave.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","published_at":"2018-07-07T11:34:46+10:00","sort_order":"manual","template_suffix":"","disjunctive":true,"rules":[{"column":"type","relation":"equals","condition":"Dobby Weaving Loom"}],"published_scope":"global","image":{"created_at":"2019-06-08T00:53:39+10:00","alt":"Dobby Looms: Computer and Mechanical","width":1800,"height":800,"src":"\/\/threadcollective.com.au\/cdn\/shop\/collections\/computerdobby2onmegado.jpg?v=1704930982"}},{"id":270991491257,"handle":"floor-loom","title":"Floor Looms","updated_at":"2024-11-14T19:20:02+10:00","body_html":"\u003ch2 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFind The Floor Loom Right For You\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFloor looms are ideal for the weaver looking to weave longer or wider projects.
