Schacht Mighty Wolf, 8-Shaft, 10 treadles $2500
Pick up in Washington, D.C. area (Maryland suburbs) (U.S.A.)
Loom comes with many extras:
Stroller (wheels)
Raddle (the Schacht brand that fits on back beam)
Wolf trap
2 lamp holders (one installed, one new still in plastic bag) and a folding lamp that fits into the holder
3 stainless reeds (12, 10 and 7 DPI)
900+ inserted eye heddles (about 80 already on each shaft, the rest are new)
2 lease sticks
I replaced the old continuous apron cords with new texsolv cords about 2 years ago.
The loom is in excellent shape, works perfectly.
I’ve had this loom for 30 years and loved it but now that I’m 70, lifting 6 shafts at a time is getting harder, so decided to replace it with a sinking shed loom that has texsolv heddles.
A new Mighty Wolf with these extras would cost well over $4000.
Note: since it’s been my workhorse loom for 30 years, it has dents and marks of course. None of them affect its functioning.
