Breast beam height

Treadles

The treadles on the Delta are 1" wide with 1 1/2" between them.  The treadles do not float around but they are rear slung which means you have to lift your leg off of the treadle from the thigh and then place it on the next treadle. There is a foot rail for you to balance yourself with the other foot.

You cannot be stepping on one treadle while stepping on the other, meaning you can't be riding it like a bike. With counter-marche looms, all harnesses are tied to each treadle and thus things will jam if you try to do this. The loom is 37 1/2" high at the breast beam. You can get little blocks to extend the height of the treadle so the Delta can be height adjusted for a weaver with shorter legs.
