  • I love the sound of old clacking power looms- it's the flying shuttle, or updated version thereof. You have to understand I like Minimalist music as well. I find repetitive sounds relaxing. Left on your own you may sing or think of words of wisdom, I think of looms.
    These are the 1920s Draper looms in Lowell's Boott Cotton Mills museum. My only regret is that they have too few staff to run more. I have included close ups of the mechanism.

    My grandmother and other relatives worked for years in a local (now long closed and abandoned) linen mill, and I often wondered what it must have sounded like inside; this gives me a true idea as to what industrial work was like, thank you!

    Sounds slightly faster than what I remember Lochcarron having in Gala in the '80s. Woollen mill. Sounded more like about about 1 pass per second, as I could make out the shuttle hitting the end, then the heddles dropping. Used to hear it walking home from the Co-op if the doors were open in the summer. They're all rapier looms now. Have to go to Elliot's or Dalgleish's in Selkirk now to hear a flying shuttle loom.

    Could you please do a video on how the warp thread is loaded into a shuttle loom?

    Short answer is yes. I'd like a credit as recording "engineer." It's a museum so I can't take much credit, and the video and audio can only be used for personal or educational purposes (their rules- I didn't sign a release). This video and a 13min track have the output reduced. I can make a go of creating a mp3 from the raw files if you like. But my camera has a terrible mic.
