Spring 2 - 8 and 12 Shaft Options | Louet
Complex tie-ups, uneven tension, and setup fatigue can take the joy out of weaving. The Louët Spring 2 offers smart design upgrades and a signature moving breast beam for smooth, intuitive weaving that honours your creativity and your body.
The moving breast beam ensures consistent warp tension, resulting in uniform fabric and reduced warp breakage.
Yes, the Spring 2 allows upgrading from 8 to 12 shafts with an extension set. Extension set available here https://threadcollective.com.au/products/louet-spring-2-4-shaft-extension-kit.
Both the Spring II Loom and the David Loom are excellent choices, but they each offer distinct features tailored to different needs:
Spring II Loom: The Spring II features a parallel countermarch system, which allows for more precise control over tension, making it ideal for fine-tuning your weavings. It offers the option for up to 12 shafts, giving you a broad range of pattern possibilities. Additionally, the floating breast beam provides superior tension control, making it well-suited for more complex and intricate weavings, including larger projects.
David Loom: The David Loom, on the other hand, is a Jack loom, which is known for its more compact design and simpler operation. While it doesn’t offer the same level of complexity or the ability to add as many shafts as the Spring II, it is a fantastic choice for smaller spaces or for those looking for a more straightforward, user-friendly loom. It's an excellent choice for beginners or those who prioritize portability and ease of use over advanced features.
