Easy to learn. Like anything, becoming comfortable with a RHL takes time, but as long as you have good information, enthusiasm and practice, becoming a good weaver on a RHL is very achievable.
Time efficient. I guess this comes under easy to learn as well, but the RHL is really quick and simple to warp and get weaving. By using pick up sticks, heddle rods and extra reeds, you can turn a RHL into a multi shaft loom. If this sounds interesting to you, I have an in depth class showing you how to convert 3 and 4 shaft pattern drafts to your RHL. You can find that class here. I also have a class that shows you how to achieve 4 shaft patterns by weaving with 3 heddles.
Very little loom waste you gotta love that! You may need some pretty good guidance to be able to set up your loom for more shafts or patterned weaving. A loom that is already set up for multi shafts is more efficient in this respect. Limited reed sizes. The smallest dent reed currently available is a 15 dent from Ashford. This is due to most reeds being manufactured with heavy duty plastic in a wooden frame.
It can only go so small. It is hard to achieve good tension with finer yarns. I tend to use my rigid heddle loom with thicker yarns as I feel it is better suited. Is that a con? Pros — A more affordable way to set up for multi shaft weaving than a floor loom. Boat shuttles work well. Castle is collapsable, so even though it stands somewhat tall it can be compacted down. Cons- You need a sturdy table to place it on Depending on the size of your loom, you may need help to move it. Some table loom weavers stand while weaving — that is not going to appeal to everyone me included!
Not quite as comfortable to sit at as a RHL and it is best to have a good, height adjustable chair. Heddles are not moveable once your project is threaded. You can make extra heddles if you need to, but cannot move the shafts during a project. Dressing the loom is quite a time commitment! Shed can be small Depending on the size of the loom, you may not be able to advance the warp from a seated position. If you enjoyed this post, you may also want to watch the companion video:.
