BLUSTER BAY END-FEED SHUTTLES: for perfect selvedges and speedy weaving. Unlike other end-feed shuttles these do not require a tool for threading or tension adjustment, and the tension can be adjusted during weaving without breaking the weft or unthreading the shuttle. 2 sizes: 13" (will take a 5.5" AVL pirn) and 15" (will take an 8" AVL or Schacht pirn). Pirns sold separately.

BLU-7113 - 13" $89.75
BLU-7115 - 15" $93.50

How does it work? The yarn comes off the end of the pirn and through the round brass eye. To apply tension, you guide the yarn around one or more of the brass hooks; the more hooks used the more tension. To adjust for more or less tension, just increase or decrease the number of hooks in play. Easy.

POKE SHUTTLES    
   
New! From New Voyager Trading. These handy shuttles are just right for inlay techniques or any weaving where the shuttle is "poked" in and out of the warp. They are shaped like a tiny rag shuttle with pointed ends. Made of natural, unstained rosewood so the depth of color will vary somewhat. The range is from deep reddish mahogany to a walnut color. The finish on these shuttles looks and feels like satin, and the tips are smooth and rounded downward slightly so that they will not catch the warp. They are best used with yarns in the finer-medium range (space for yarns is 5/16"). And, of course, a poke shuttle does not allow the weft yarn to touch the warp so these babies fly like the wind through your shed. Sizes: 6", 9", 12".
