New warping-mill iron-creel, for silk. The bobbins or reels are made to pass each other, forming the lease instantly, instead of the warper soiling and ruffling the ends with his fingers, so that the twister-in or weaver can separate every end in the warp with facility.

Warping-mill heck, of 224 eyes, with (new) inclined crossing motion, for cotton.
