PINNED BEATER LOOM #4: THEWISCONSIN LOOM

Loom is in a private residence in Edgertown, Wisconsin 

At Left: Wide view of left-rear side of loom, showing the beater leg. The lower end of the leg has a 7 inch shoe-like extension that faces the back of loom and rests on an iron bolt that protruds from outside edge of loom base.

At Right: View of upper portion of loom with warp beam to the rear. Note drop-stick brake system on warp beam.

After reading the Rocker Beater Loom article in Florence Feldman-Wood's Spinning Wheel Sleuth Loom Supplement #6, the owner of this loom recognized it as a similar style. She had the impression the loom may have had an Appalachian background.
