{"product_id":"the-shasta-combs","title":"The Shasta Combs","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Shasta Combs were developed with four goals in mind for Classic Series Mirrix Loom users: To offer a simple and easy warping option; to allow for shorter pieces to be woven without wasting warp; to create one layer of warp instead of two; to allow for four-selvedge warping. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese combs essentially turn a Mirrix Loom into a simple frame loom (read: very simple to use) but with the amazing Mirrix tensioning system and the ability to use the Mirrix shedding device. The combs are not meant to replace our current warping system, which offers the advantage of putting on a warp that is longer than the loom itself as well as a variety of warp setts, but to provide an additional warping method that is very fast and simple. The Shasta Combs can also allow one to weave a t\u003cspan\u003eapestry\/fiber or bead \u003c\/span\u003epiece (of limited lengths) with no warp-ends to finish.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Shasta Combs for the 12\", 16\", 19\" and 22\" looms are made of \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003epowder-coated aluminum with slightly angled tines. The 5\" and 8\" Shasta Combs are made of aluminum that is not powder-coated and without angled tines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShasta Combs have three sides so that they clamp right on to the top and bottom beams of the loom, making them easy to put on and take off without having to permanently change anything about the loom.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThese combs are available in warp sett of 8, 10, 12, and 14 ends per inch. However, if you use them with a top and bottom warp coil you can get whatever sett the warp coils are. This method of combining the combs with the warp coils allows you to use them with most bead sizes as well as different setts for tapestry\/fiber weaving.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(255, 42, 0);\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eYou can find Shasta Combs for our double beamed Classic Series Looms \u003ca style=\"color: rgb(255, 42, 0);\" href=\"https:\/\/mirrixlooms.com\/products\/the-double-beam-shasta-combs\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ehere\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy Combs?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e-Easy and fast warping \u003cbr\u003e-Saves warp\u003cbr\u003e-Creates one layer of warp instead of two \u003cbr\u003e-Gives you the option of not having to finish your warp-ends (\u003ci\u003eThe size of pieces made with this method are limited by the size of your loom and the height each loom can be adjusted to, as the top and bottom of weavings made with this method will be at the top and bottom of your loom.)\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWho Might Want Combs?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e-Tapestry\/fiber weavers and bead weavers\u003cem\u003e (Note: Bead weavers will want to use this accessory with a \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.mirrixlooms.com\/collections\/accessories\/products\/bottom-spring-kit-and-14-dent-coil\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eBottom Spring Kit\u003c\/a\u003e.) \u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e-Beginning weavers who want the option of a simple method of warping\u003cbr\u003e-Weavers who want to weave pieces without warp ends to finish \u003ci\u003e(See note above about size limitations.) \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e-Those looking for a fast, easy way to warp for samples or other quick pieces \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow to Warp With Combs:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWarping consists of tying to a tooth on one comb and zig-zagging back and forth through the teeth.
