The Machine.—The special machines devoted to increasingspeed and easier action on the warp are carefully analyzed, andmeasured drawings of the parts made. Machines devoted to the pro-duction of special effects are studied and their advantages noted. The machines treated are: Raise and drop, double lift, double and singlecylinder, twilling machines, drop shed machines, leno and the working ofdoupes and slackeners. ingrain and Brussels HAND-WEAVING LABORATORY JACQUARD LOOMS. Mounting.—The opportunity is afforded for the student tothread the comberboard and tie up looms for varied effects of design. Mountings for controlling two or more warps and the placing ofshafts in the neck cords and below the comberboard are preparedand drawings made. The mounting of Brussels and ingrain machines are treated atlength, and opportunity is afforded the student to study the detailsclosely. Such mountings are prepared as follows: Section ties.—Combination ofharness and Jacquard.—Shaft lashing.—Compound harness.—Carpet ties. 78 JACQUARD DESIGN COURSE Designing.—As color is one of the essential features of a design,it is used to a great extent in the origination of elaborate designs. The planning on squared or point paper of fabrics having two or more warps and fillings and the calculations for the proper size papers for the enlarged working designs are given considerableattention.
