Selling my Schacht Vertial Warping Mill, which was discontinued in 2015 - it served me very well since 2011, but I’m finding:
- I sometimes want to wind longer warps;
- Space - I now have a “Ronja” warping board attached to my Glimåkra Standard
Details:
- Dimensions: 36” high, 18” on a side (i.e., two yards around), 25” corner-to-corner
- I think it is Maple, well-finished, perfectly smooth (I suspect the pegs may be pine)
- Winds (for me) up to a 9 yard 4-5” wide bout of 8/2 (YMMV depending on how fine your yarn is) - photo shows 9 yards 3/2 cotton
- Peg bars disattach and re-attach for changes in your warp length (i.e., simple procedure to go from a 2.5 yard warp to an 8 yard warp)
- “Outside” pegs are removable (I pull one off when I’m ready to chain the warp to releast tension)
- Does not have a brake
I believe I paid $240 for it in 2011 - comparable size mills currently available are the Ashford at $235, Louet ($335). Paypal accepted.
Asking $225 including shipping within the Lower 48 - I’ll take it apart, have it packed and shipped by UPS, and will include assembly instructions (from Schacht).
