Is this weaving or woodworking?
You decide!
Total cost for the loom and the easel was just under $50; decent wood, aspen, and the nails, bolts, washers, wingnuts. So not super cheap, but certainly not overly expensive either.
I am NOT a carpenter or cabinet maker, my dad used to use the term "wood butcher", I think that is probable the best that one can say of my wood working skills, but it was just enough to get this project done. Next I will get back to something where I have a bit more skill and try using this new loom.
