Note: The "full text" format doesn't include the drawings & photos, which are the heart of the book.

Thank you for this link - simple, interesting and informative. A must-read for everyone IMHO.
I was just looking at that - it's fascinating! It described the shuttle, bobbin and two spools and how to load them - it was really neat seeing how the two spools worked.
