Other vertically-challenged AVL weavers I know have attached blocks of wood to the treadles to make them easier to reach. > And then that 6' tall person must be > Twiggy-thin, besides. How the heck can you put 100 yards of cloth on > the cloth beam when it's that close to the bench? I'm not sure which AVL model you have, Holly, but if it the standard production (16-shaft) or technical (24-shaft) version, the cloth beam is at the BACK of the loom (not by the bench). The woven cloth goes around the sandpaper beam, around the rollers, under the shafts and to the back where it rolls up for storage. Which model do you have? Perhaps I can help. I have a 16-shaft 60-inch production AVL from the 1980's.
