A Drawing-in frame was a piece of equipment used in the cotton industry. It was the drawers-in job to thread each of ends on a new beam through the correct healds, and then though the reed. On a Lancashire loom weaving grey cloth this was a simple but time consuming task, but for a complex pattern on a Jacquard tapestry loom, great care was needed. To do this, the new beam was mounted on the back of a drawing-in frame, the healds were held next in a vertical position, and in front the reed would be clamped. This job was done by a ''reacher-in'' and a ''loomer''. The reacher-in, who would be young and usually a boy, passed each end in order to the loomer who threaded it through the healds and the reed. A 'drawer-in' was sometimes referred to as a beamer. 〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.cottontown.org/page.cfm?pageid=4873&language=eng )〕 The drawers-in sat between the two beams on low three legged stool, head and shoulders at beam height and so surrounded was humorously given the nickname “Yutick’s nest.”〔 ==References== Footnotes Citations Bibliography * * 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Drawing-in frame」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
