The Flying Shuttle was made by an English inventor named John Kay in 1733. It was used for making weaving much faster. Allowing people to make larger looms operated by one person, Using levers and springs to pull the shuttle back. The Flying Shuttle became a very important invention in the textile industry, eventually put one or two shuttle throwers out of a job. The Flying Shuttle did use a lot of yarn and did make the supply of yarn even worse. The invention could produce a large piece of cloth; the invention was thrown by a leaver that could be operated by one weaver. Kay placed shuttle boxes at each side of the loom connected by a long board, known as a shuttle race. A single weaver, using one hand, could cause the shuttle to be moved back and forth across the loom from one shuttle box to the other. Some woollen manufacturers used the Flying Shuttle but did not pay him royalties. Many people from the textile industry were of course very offended and attacked John Kay home and destroyed his invention, because they thought "The Flying Shuttle" was such a successful invention it would have taken work away from them. Many people have tried creating well duplicating his invention but have not really succeeded. Inventions of the revolution in textiles were weaving and spinning while the Flying Shuttle had the scene of mechanical weaving; the spinning frame was also important making the textile industry. John Kay's invention had lead the industrial revolution. Without his Flying Shuttle, there would have been no need for the spinning machines that followed, Like the Spinning Jenny for instance.
