The spinner personally chooses the type of treadle, but the function and results remain unchanged. The Double Drive Wheel This type of wheel is named after the drive band. It goes around the spinning wheel a couple of times. The drive band turns the flyer, described as the horse-shoe shaped wooden piece that surrounds the bobbin. Continue the process of spinning in the same direction until the time the leader starts to take in the twist. Leave some fiber at the end to join on more fiber. On Winding You have to maintain tension on the freshly spun yarn to let the twist run into the freshly drafted fiber. As soon as you let go of the tension, the twist should not travel up. Check the top-whorl spindle by connecting a short length of yarn to the top of the hook, then give a quick roll to the shaft using your fingers and let the drop spindle begin rotating. Spin the drop spindle a number of times. Observe the drop spindle if it rotates freely, appears sluggish, wobbles frequently, easy to twirl or grasp or spin unusual. After the war, the processes and manufacture of woven bamboos were stopped and replaced with the manufacture of cheap ones that were only made of plastic. But still, the public always wanted something that was natural and made with great quality. This was probably why they always came back to the use and high demand of woven bamboo products. In the past, simpler fabrics were woven using dobby looms, while the adaptation of the Jacquard harness is reserved for more sophisticated patterns. A number of people believe in the efficiency of the Jacquard loom. They say that the weaving process used by the Jacquard loom is more economical for mills, so that all the fabrics can be woven quickly and in the best condition possible, regardless of the sophistication of the structure. Its discovery A very common story about how this device was particularly invented is that James Hargreaves daughter, named Jenny, was knocked over to her feet by one of her father s very own inventions. When this occurred, James Hargreaves noticed that the machine was still working efficiently, only with the spindle now pointing in an upright direction.
