Stringing the Heddles on My Union No.36 Loom

In this video I show you how I string the heddles on my Union Loom. The next video in the series will show you how to pull the strings through the reed.

Addendum-Still using the same old Union loom with shafts and heddles like yours. Anything bigger than 8/2 cotton, I will warp front to back. I made some more wool cloth from my homespun. I made a 42"x42" warping frame. I find it more expedient to thread a dent and then the appropriate heddle at the same time. The first time my 38" material become 32" material but lesson learned- 12 epi for a 12 dent reed. I know that people make rugs because they are easiest to sell at Shows. I made a cloak for my grand daughter in Wyoming. It is heavy but it keeps her warm.

I tied on a warp of 8/2 cotton yarn on an old Union Loom with two shafts. I had 16 ends per inch and 16 inch wide warp so that was 256 yarns. I had to make a modified rattle stick with 16 spaces between the 17 straight pins. After rolling every 16 yarn segment onto the warp beam, I had to secure the ends with duct tape in such a way that they would stay in order. It was a lot of work for five dish towels, I'm tellin' ya'!

You’re videos are awesome, none like them on you tube. I shared them with the Union Loom Facebook groups.

Great warping and weaving series. I wish you'd put out more weaving videos. I didn't hear how many yards you put on

Thank you🤓

Great, useful video. Does the lack of a lease/cross in this style of warping ever create issues?

I am looking at buying a loom but worried about waring of the loom. where do you buy the string ?
