We recently made a significant improvement to our Weavebird Cable system and we strongly recommend all Weavebird owners to execute this upgrade.

This new cable kit will reduce, by a minimum, 50% of the effort needed to open or close the shed. Simultaneously, it will reduce the tension on all the moving parts extending the life of the loom..

An added advantage is the adjustments to the Cable tensions are easier and quicker to make and will hold indefinately..

The kit includes all the upper and lower metal cables that control the shaft frames, the newest metal cables controling the treadles and  a new very precise Spring loaded Gage to adjust the tension on the cables.

The full upgrade is simple to accomplish and can be done with or without a warp on the loom. Plan on 5 to 8 hours depending of which model you have to complete.
