Flex – your loom, your way!
Flex as a rigid heddle, 4 shaft or 8 shaft loom – versatile, expandable and practical
Flex is a compact and versatile rigid heddle loom that adapts to your way of weaving. Whether you prefer to always weave with a rigid heddle or want the option to expand to 4 or 8 shafts in the future, Flex gives you the freedom to choose. Thanks to its smart design, the loom can be easily converted – and just as easily changed back to a rigid heddle loom.
Flex is designed for weavers looking for a versatile and flexible table loom that grows with their ambitions. With 4 or 8 shafts, the shaft version of Flex offers the perfect balance of compactness and functionality. Whether you are a beginner taking your first steps in shaft weaving, or an experienced weaver looking for a smart and efficient loom, Flex adapts to your way of working.
Thanks to the modular design, you can start with 4 shafts and later expand to 8 shafts with a conversion kit. Of course, you can also go for 8 shafts right away. With a choice of 30 or 50 cm weaving width, Flex provides a solid base for all your creative projects.
There are 3 versions available
- Rigid Heddle Flex
- 4 shaft Flex
- 8 shaft Flex
You can convert the Rigid Heddle to a shaft loom and expand 4 shafts to 8 shafts, whenever it fits your needs. Flex is flexible!
Variable rigid heddle
The Flex comes standard with a 30/10 rigid heddle, which is easy to assemble and use.
Thanks to the modular rigid heddle frame, segments can be easily inserted and removed. This allows different densities to be combined, creating a vari-dent rigid heddle.
A second rigid heddle can be added by purchasing an extra rigid heddle frame and loose segments. It is also possible to buy only segments and convert the existing heddle to a different density or combination of densities.
