Schacht End-Delivery Shuttles
There is just one word for these shuttles: Great! My selvedges
have never been better. Schacht End
Delivery Shuttles are designed with the weaver in mind. The Schacht
end-delivery shuttle has a pirn which remains stationary, instead of
a free-spinning bobbin. The weft yarn unwinds off the pirns tip
when the shuttle is in motion and stops unwinding when the shuttle
stops. The yarn comes off the pirn and goes through a set of
adjustable tension pads and comes out of the shuttle at a constant
tension. This even delivery of weft causes less draw-in, which in
turn makes better selvedges. Choose from two sizes.
This Schacht End-Delivery shuttle is a bit more pricy but well worth it! Perfect for most yarns, just stay away from highly textured or large diameter yarns. I have used this shuttle with 16/2, 10/2, 8/2, 3/2 etc., and am just loving the result, Bridget
Pirns for Schacht End-Delivery Shuttle

Choose the 6" pirn for the 12" shuttle and the 8" pirn for the 15" shuttle. Bags of 5. Pirns may be made of bamboo or black resin.
