Okay i am DEFINITELY missing something here; i followed the measuring but how did you get the loop on the bottom for the tie off??

thank you for your instruction. Could you also make a video on Ashley spinning wheel. which I can see in your video in the background? I bought one but I can’t spin sad😢

Great Video, thanks. Just made the modification and I think it looks good. I did the 13" lengths on the front beam, but felt it slightly too long for the back beam on my 24" Ashford loom, as the apron bar was reaching up to the reed holder, so did one texsolv link less on those lengths. I found that if you used the same amount of whole links on each length, and it was looped onto the beam consistently in the same way/direction each time, there was no need to adjust the lengths afterwards. Also, I wasn't comfortable with the way the loops could slide off the ends of the rod afterwards. So through the holes in the bar, I did 5 or 6 figure-of-eight stitches around the cords of texsolve using a needle and strong buttonhole thread. This has secured the loops to the holes without compromising the strength of the cord. it looks good, and the loops stay put now, however, I'm yet to try it out😄 so we'll see if it's ok in practise.

Really well done, thanks so much. Wish you had more videos out there. 8-)

What thread do you use?

Why 13 inches please? The plastic pieces I'm replacing are only about 5 inches. I've only woven a few projects, but I suspect the longer these cords, the more loom waste. Am I right? Thanks for selling me the cord and for quick, correct delivery! And thanks for this improvement and video.

Wow!

This was very helpful. Ty.

Why don’t you put the cord through the holes in the front stick?

So strange! I saw this video and thought the ribbons are from Texas. But it wasn't like that! Tex - is Textil abbreviated. It turned out that the people who make and sell this have their manufacturing in Tösse, only 111 km (7 miles) from me! That's how small the world is. So now I'm going to put these on after the instructional video here. Thanks for that! (Google translate - sorry)

Very cleaver indeed! But I was wandering if your warping is finished. With the technic you use the threads are fixed on the frontpeg. If you want to use all of your warp while weaving, how do you pass on the warp ? Thank you! Greetings from Suzanne (The Netherlands)

A big advantage to this is that it enables the weaver to create warps on a warping board that can be warped onto the loom at a later time. TIP: Rather than measuring the length of the cord, simply count the number of holes in the cord; the lengths of each cord should be the same.

Totally agree with you, those plastic/nylon things are terrible. I've only had my loom a few weeks, and I had already thought about how to replace those things. Thank you for the video!

Thanks so much for this video. My Ashford has now been converted and is much easier to handle

Where can I get those kinds of cord?

This is the best idea! So much better! Thank you!

Some weeks ago I did almost the same with my loom. For now I kept the plastic straps attached because I wanted to see if my idea and set up works but for the next time I will remove the plastic straps!

Thank you for your clear instructions presented in a well-made video.

Why don't you measure the cord before you cut it??.

Love this idea, since it makes it much easier to use a pre-wound warp rather than direct warping (both methods are great--it's just nice to have a choice). I've just implemented it on my Ashford Sampleit loom. Just a note; different sized looms require a different number of Texsolv loops. I only needed 8 for my 16-inch loom.

I would cut equal counts of Texsolv links, not lengths, to avoid the re-tying step at the end, which isn’t shown, it’s probably a pain to do.

This was great! Solved a mystery for me has to how the warp tension on the inkle is maintained! I watched it twice, noticed you cleverly add slack to the warp length to tie it! Clever!! Thank you.

Thank you so much!!!

Lovely video. I will have to try this. Just some info on the techniques that you are using, the first “knot” on the roller is called a “choke”. The second knot is a slip knot, which then becomes a choke. We use these in theatre all of the time. Cool to see them applied to weaving! 🇨🇦

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!!! I cannot tell you how happy I am to have seen this video. I just got my loom and I was going cross-eyed trying to figure out how to start and load it on. So again, thank you!!!

Thank you very much. That was very helpfull.

Thank you for this✨
