If it is not lined up 100% it seems to catch an extra shaft.<br />I'm not sure how you advance with the Megado, with the Magic Dobby you have to turn a knob. So I have to fiddle with the knob when I notice that more shafts have been lifted.<br />I'm just hoping that this will be solved when the interface box will be installed (hopefully next month)Margreethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01523746856134451449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7238597745667697533.post-80240015818818418972011-01-17T12:03:35.467+01:002011-01-17T12:03:35.467+01:00Oh that's come out beautifully!

The colours are lovely, very clear and fresh. <br /><br />I have also had occasional problems with lifting an extra shaft on the Megado - I finally tracked it down to the way the texsolv cord lies (or when it goes wrong, doesn't lie) in the groove at the end of the shaft. If it is outside this groove it can catch on the adjacent shaft and doesn't return to its place; this keeps the dobby hook engaged even when I move on to the next lift. <br /><br />No idea if this is related to your problem, but I now always check the cords are in place before starting to weave, and then again after every hour or so of weaving just in case any have slipped out. I blame myself for being too energetic! ;-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7238597745667697533.post-74974540316672104282011-01-17T00:15:48.803+01:002011-01-17T00:15:48.803+01:00Gorgeous colours!
