Beside Collingwood there is a book from Marijke van Epen called "Speical
tablet weaves" where the technique of the Sa'dan Toraja (as well as the
Mamase Toraja) is described in much detail. You can find information on
that book on Marijke's website:

If you just need a short threading information you can find a GIF on my
website (which I used for threading purposes):

Take care: the counting of holes is A: top hole near the weaver, B:
bottom hole near the weaver, C: bottom hole far from weaver, D: top hole
far from weaver (same counting that is e.g. used in Candace Crockett's
book, while GTT uses an exactly mirrored counting).

Up to now I do not have any further information or description on my
website.
