42" LeClerc F Series Loom 4H 6T Counterbalance Loom. This is a seriously mistreated antique. I was in contact with Leclerc concerning it for quite some time and we determined it is well over 50 years old and it would cost me too much money to restore it to working order. It is missing a warping beam as well as cords to hook the harnesses up. There are a few tie up cords, but they are very rusty. I replaced all the bolts with new stainless steel bolts from home depot. Bench is included, but it is somewhat broken and would need a little wood glue to be in one piece again. Great item for a serious loom rebuilding project, since all the functional parts would need replacing or repair. Asking $150, but would take $100 if you come pick it up. I am in Duvall, WA Email
