Type of Item: Spinning Wheel
Manufacturer and Model: Fricke S-160-DT
Additional Description: Fricke DT wheel in excellent condition with lots of extra goodies to play with. This wheel was built by Mr Fricke himself, and has been a joy to own, but I just don’t have the time anymore. I want to see it go somewhere it will be loved. It is light weight, and travels well with the carry handle.
Still moves very smoothly and makes the gentle clack associated with spinning wheels.
Includes 8 bobbins, a 3 bobbin cartridge for plying, and lots of assorted fibers (two 54qt/51L containers of merino, bamboo, silk, alpaca) to play and learn. Smoke free home. We do have dogs, but they aren’t ever near the wheel or the fiber.
Location of Item(s): St. Charles, MO
Asking Price: $550
Payment Methods will you Accept: cash
Transfer of Item: Pickup Only, Delivery
Additional Information about Transfer: Willing to meet a serious buyer closer to STL. Happy to give full demo of the ins and outs if you're not familiar with spinning wheels as well.

Type of Item: Counterbalance Floor Loom
Manufacturer and Model: J.L. Hammett
Additional Description: Beautiful refurbished solid maple floor loom! The loom is in great shape, but DISCLAIMER that buyer will need to do a few finishing touches before it is ready to weave, hence the low price.

Reed is included if desired, but is rusty so will need to be cleaned prior to use. I also have PDFs of old JL Hammett assembly manuals that I would be happy to share if helpful.

Type of Item: Rigid Heddle Loom
Manufacturer and Model: BEKA Rigid Heddle Loom 20"
Additional Description: It comes with a stand, an 8 dent heddle, threading hook, heddle blocks, some shuttles/pickup sticks and assembly instructions.
It's fully assembled right now but can be easily taken apart for travel. It also folds up. Please note I made a modification to this loom to make it easier to use. (I added a front apron rod and added quarter round to cover the front teeth since they kept snagging my yarn. This makes the Beka function more like a Cricket loom.)
Please also note that this loom was one of the earlier designs which means there are no ratchets on the side beams. Beka sells newer versions of the side beams on their website in case ratchets are desired. You don't need them to weave but it makes it a little easier to advance the warp with them.
The stand can be easily adjusted for the weaver's height and also works with the 22" loom they sell in case you ever decide to upgrade to the wider loom, you wouldn't need to buy a new stand.
There are no clamps for the Beka, so you would have to use your own C-clamps when warping it or tie it to the back of a chair to keep it steady.
