The machine is run with friction power, operated with atread pedal, and can be regulated to run at a steady and smoothspeed, or a fast speed, if required. 5. Heavy warps can be made upon these machines. 6. They are easily handled by the operative when it is neces-sary to pull back and fix broken ends. 7. Then again, the Swiss motion can be disconnected and themachine operated in the same manner as the plain horizontal. Fig. 7.—Horizontal Warper, with Warp and eight-yard reel. 1.

The number of pins required is generally governed by the kindof warp that is to be made. Creels containing 400 to 600 pins arethe most commonly used, and the pins should be made Ij incheslonger than the bobbins so that they will be long enough to placean extra bobbin upon each pin. The all-iron pipe creel is stronger,and with its use all bobbins can readily be seen while in motion,a very important point in warping operations. 24 WARPING PROCESSES The reeds used for warping are one single or double cross reed,with as nnany dents in each reed as there are pins on the creel, andone spacing reed, with as many dents to the inch as are requiredfor the work to be done. There are other
