We offer two boat shuttles from Harrisville Design: the regular 12" boat shuttle, and the 8" “Shuttlette” have closed bottoms and have a bobbin included. Both accept our 4" hardwood bobbins. The shuttles are made of hardwood and are finely sanded and come unfinished. A spring operated shaft holds a bobbin securely yet releases easily for quick, convenient reloading. We recommend our regular shuttle for general weaving and our “Shuttlette” for narrow warps.
Each item must first and foremost be a good tool. We use the finest hardwoods and natural products as often as possible, because we believe that hand-weaving tools designed to work well should also be easy to live with, to look at, and to use.
Choose 8" Shuttlette (7 3/4" long X 1 5/8" wide with a height/profile of 15/16"), 12" Shuttle (11 3/4" long X 1 7/8" wide with a height/profile of 15/16"), ski shuttles, rug shuttles or additional wooden bobbins from drop-down box at upper right. Boat shuttles come with one free bobbin already inside.
I have 4" Nylon (like Plastic) bobbins to fit these shuttles. Bobbins available singly, in 2 pack, 6pack or 10 pack.
