| Description | Wooden post that fits together with other beams to form a rectangular structure to suspend a loom (82-7-265).

It has two horizontal beams that fit into the slots on it (82-7-294A top, 82-7-294C bottom) which connect into another vertical wooden post (82-7-294I). The bottom slot allows for the horizontal beam (82-7-294C) to go through the entire post and out the other side. |
