Description

Wooden loom part that fits vertically into a wooden beam (82-7-292N) in order to hold a loom pole (82-7-242.2). It sits on the left hand side of the weaver. There is a peg that allows the long wood pole to sit horizontal across the loom via four holes cut in the pole. This loom pole is used to roll the textiles as it gets woven in the loom. The other side of the pole is held by a similar part (82-7-292AA) with a notch instead of a peg.
