Deduction (unit)
The deduction was a Leipzig measure in the weaving mill. In Leipzig , the length of the yarn was dependent on the type of yarn and was 2 yards for wool and 4 yards for linen (Dresdner) long (reel circumference).
- 1 print = 30 bundles = 600 threads = 2400 cubits
The following individual values were calculated
- 1 bundle = 20 threads = 80 cubits
- 1 braid = 20 bundles = 400 threads = 1600 cubits
- 1 strand = 40 bundles = 800 threads = 3200 cubits
- 8 prints = 1 piece = 240 bundles = 4800 threads = 19,200 cubits = 6 strands = 12 braids
