Our first rigid heddle loom looked much like the Flip loom, except it didn't fold. We released different sizes in 1976 and 2008, gradually phasing them out once the Flip loom came out in 2004. We no longer sell rigid heddles or repair parts for the original rigid heddle loom.
Smaller sizes of this loom fit on a Table Stand, the Trestle I Stand, and the Trestle II Stand. You can install a loom up to 30" wide on our current Trestle Stand. The 35" Rigid Heddle Loom had its own stand; both were discontinued around 1999.

We don't have photos of the Table Stand. This stand had two side pieces that screwed into the rigid heddle loom (or the original Tapestry Loom) and clamped to a table.

We don't have photos of the Trestle II Stand, which included a cloth beam, warp beam, and brake system.
