                TASK 2: Carryout drafting process of 400 threads for making loom operational
                1  Place the heald frame in front of the beam.        6  Take the first thread from the beam and pass it into
                                                                        the first heald wire in the heald frame by using the
                2  Place 400 heald wires in the heald frame.
                                                                        heald hook.
                3  Take the warp threads from the warp beam and pass   7  For this, first insert the heald hook into the heald wire
                   it through the heald  wires in the heald  frame. As   and attach the respective yarn in the heald wire.
                   shown in Fig 1
                                                                      8  Then draw the heald  hook back along  with the
                  Fig 1                                                 thread.
                                                                      9  Pull the extra length of the yarn out through the heald
                                                                        wire and simply place it out. As shown in Fig 2
                                                                      10 Likewise draw all the  threads through the heald
                                                                        wires.

                                                                       Fig 2

                4  Divide the warp threads into two equal parts. Odd
                   threads (1,3,5..) and even threads (2,4,6,8…).
                5  Pass the odd threads through the first healds and
                   pass the even threads in two the second healds.

                TASK 3: Carryout the denting process of 400 threads

                1  Take the first thread from the first heald wire.    Fig 1
                2  Now insert the heald hook into the first dent of the
                   reed.
                3  Place the thread in the slot of the heald hook.(Fig 1)
                4  Now pull the heald hook out from the reed.
                5  Likewise  draw second thread through the second
                   dent in the reed.
                6  Draw all the 400 threads in the reed. As shown in
                   (Fig 2)
