  10 epi and you used a 5 dent reed?

• 
  @MargeryEricksonКүн бұрын

  oops I meant to say 10 wraps per inch divide by 2 = 5 epi in the reed for tabby.

  Great points. I continue to hear the $100/shaft price myth 2 years later. I actually replied to a reddit post repeating this myth with a lot of the exact points you make in this video. Regarding number of shafts, you can always use fewer shafts in a given project. Generally (except models like the Schacht 4Now4Later) a given loom can't be expanded, so if you ever want to do more complex weaves, you would need to buy a new loom (or trade up) if you decide you want to do patterns requiring more shafts. With regard to weaving width, you can always do doubleweave to increase the weaving width, but that basically divides the effective number of shafts in half with respect to patterns. The price you pay for a used loom can be heavily dependent on location. Floor looms are generally very heavy, so a private seller isn't going to ship, which means local pickup. Thus if the area doesn't have a weaving community, demand may be low, which drives price down.

  ​@@MargeryErickson, there's more to it than many years of weaving. How do you get your salvages so even? I've watched many weavers who fuss over every throw of the shuttle to keep that salvage perfect. But not you... You throw that shuttle and the tension is perfect. No special combination of throw, fuss about with the yarn, then beat. What's your secret? Or is weaving your super power and your salvages just come out perfect. 💖🌞🌵😷
