Clemes Traditional Spinning Wheel
A versatile, durable wheel with old world styling and construction. The single treadle, double drive design makes this wheel both ergonomic and efficient for spinning a variety of sizes and styles of yarn. The frame is assembled with mortise and tenon joints. Each spoke in the wheel is pinned in place by hand with a dowel. Each wheel is thoroughly tested to ensure it meets high standards of craftsmanship and quality. See https://clemes.com/traditional-wheel $1200.

4-harness floor loom
The loom is sturdy, attractive, and in good condition, with one small tea stain spot and a rough area some would not notice. It is not too large, not too small being 25 x 48 folded. It has six treadles and four heddles. It brought me hours of satisfaction until it was crowded out of the living room. I would take $500 or reasonable offer for it and a few accessories. I would negotiate delivering it up to 35 or so miles from San Jose.

60 inch Tissart Tapestry Loom
This model was discontinued several years ago so they are hard to find now. Drawing and parts list can be found on the Leclerc website at http://www.leclerclooms.com/draw_inst/da_tissart.PDF
The loom is in great, but used condition. It comes with one 60" reed, the original Leclerc Manual and "Warp and Weave" by Robert Leclerc. There is no bench. The loom is currently assembled and located in the San Francisco Bay Area. I prefer a local buyer, but will consider shipping if you make all arrangements. Price is $800 firm.
