This is illustrated in fig. it the inventor avails himself of the large beams madeupon the beaming machine for the modern sizing new machine contains a creel, A, for the reception of asufficient number of these beams to make a warp of therequired width. The lease is obtained at starting in theordinary way, and in combining them the warp runs offperfectly straight, and perfectly free from the twistingwhich takes place in the ordinary system. Instead of asin the slasher sizing system, the contents of each beambeing superposed on each other in succession, each sheet. WINDING AND WARPING PROCESSES. 289 of threads is drawn from its respective beam over a set ofthree rollers, b, the middle one of which forms a tensiondrop roller, which automatically takes out the slack andthus aids to make the sections of perfectly uniform beam creel is placed at a sufficient distance from theheadstock to allow each sheet of threads to converge bythe time they reach it into a narrow tape of threads, c, ofabout three inches width. Each of these sections is passedbeneath a curved conductor, d, which lays them side byside, not upon each other. Thence the now united sectionspass through a ring, just above which, and enclosing thewarp, is a wheel, e, revolving upon carriers, and itselfcarrying a bracket upon which is placed two small bobbinsof yarn. The revolution of this wheel with its bobbins wrapsthe warp with a binding thread which keeps it together,the turns being about one in every ten inches, or
