"A classic shuttle great for everyday use. The open bottom is very convenient for grip as you weave. High quality construction and arrived in a timely manner."
"I’m using this with my rigid heddle loom and it’s amazing. I can weave so much faster and it’s so enjoyable. I absolutely love it. Beautifully made."
"This shuttle has a nice throwing weight, not too heavy but not too light. It maintains a level plane as it passes through the shed. Also, I was looking for a slim shuttle for my table loom. The thicker shuttle that I had would catch on the warp threads as the shed became smaller just as I was getting ready to advance. This shuttle saves me a little time because I don't have to advance quite as often."
"This boat shuttle is perfect for my table loom, it works in even the tiniest shed. It glides smoothly over my warp without a shuttle race."
"Nice sleek boat shuttle. Beautifully finished and solid."
"Love the slim boat shuttle for my older style table loom!"
"I like these shuttles for my rigid heddle; I wanted something slim. I have many bobbins as I do double duty and use them as storage bobbins in spinning."
"Wonderful piece of equipment to weave when a smaller shed exists. It is well made. Very pleased."
"Looks and feels great. Second shuttle I’ve purchased for more colors on the loom!"
"I’ve been using the shuttle for several weeks and it is working great for me."
