CA Could use some woodworker's help to make small inkle loom

@JayJohnson600 Can digital media help with this?

If not, I can setup my camera with an interval timer to take a picture every 30 seconds or so.

I’ll check into what DM may be able to assist with.

When is this scheduled to take place?

Let me get the thread and fool with it, maybe tomorrow, then I will plan for a taping of it

Just as a curiosity, how do you keep the weft from unwrapping off the shuttle while you are using it? I made a couple shuttles for my mini Inkle and I’m just using a rubber band. I’m sure there must be a more elegant solution.

I wrap it on in a figure 8

I think it’s more just developing a habit of how you pass it back and forth so it doesn’t unwind. The thread itself usually sticks to itself a tiny bit too. Now a slippery thread like fine nylon might be crazy making and need a rubber band.

When I’m weaving, I usually lead with the end the yarn is going around which keeps it in place then flip a wrap loose when I need more
