LoftyFiber | Helping Hands for Ashford Table Looms
The LoftyFiber Helping Hands makes loom dressing more comfortable and efficient by supporting your lease sticks in an ideal working position throughout the warping process.
During reed sleying and beaming, the Helping Hands holds the lease sticks securely, where they are easy to access. Once the warp has been wound onto the beam, the unit can be repositioned to bring the lease sticks close to the heddle eyes, making threading more convenient and reducing unnecessary reaching.
The Helping Hands is designed to work with Ashford cross (lease) sticks or other lease sticks of the same dimensions. If you don't already have a set, Ashford cross sticks are available separately.
For the best warping experience, this accessory is recommended for use alongside the LoftyFiber Raddle for Ashford table looms.
