Great tutorial. I'm going to make a loom like that one, I have a feeling it will work a lot better than those cheap wire looms. I didn't know about doubling the threads on the outside, great tip.
I especially like your starting with the 7 beads at the top of the end piece of the loom. The use of tape to hold them in place seems an ideal method of spacing the work. I wonder about using 7 beads at the other top end piece of the loom and lining them up so they are square with regard to the dowels and the end pieces. Great video and teaching. Thank you!
It's simpler for me to remember by saying one more thread than there are beads, then plus 2. Lol, same thing but it breaks it down for beginners & so I started doing that then. (As a kid why 3 threw me & to avoid warping wrong, I divided it up into one extra + two more for the outside & then I was picturing borders, not messing up spaces. 😁)
thanks wish would have seen your video before I started....lol just learning ... It would be great to see video on planning design... I downloaded graft paper but it wasn't the same size as my bead size it was bigger so my Mic Mac design turned out stretched out... Had to alter it a bit as I go... please do one on design planning....thanks
Wow I’ve never heard of using 3 more strings than there are beads , I’ve always used only 1 string more than there are beads and I’ve never had a problem with my work looking good, the only time my work didn’t look good is when i was just starting and I didn’t know anything about the quality of beads therefore I used Czech beads instead of high quality Japanese beads .
Yes. Up to the individual bearer and their level of skill, and how good their coordination and eyesight is. I prefer Miyuki Delica Cylinder Seed Beads, Size 11/0, but don't know how much longer my vision will allow. I am however looking forward to working with fifteen and eight sizes, though, when I cannot work the smallest beads. Just remember, the higher the number (size) the smaller the bead. Happy beadweaving from one lover of the craft!
Hi Jerri-Ann. We don't have a tutorial on how to make the loom but that's a great suggestion. But, you can check out our other related videos here: ua-cam.com/users/EddieRocksPCsearch?view_as=subscriber&query=bead
Portage College A really great tip on this one ,that I tried on the little loom I have, is the extra outside thread for more stability! I love all of the videos I’ve seen here! Very interesting and informative! Yakoke! ( Thank you in Choctaw.)
Hi there, do you have any tutorials of how to do the singele bead strands between the blocks? Do you have to take it all off the loom to do those? Thanks in advance
Hi, Linda. We do have more videos! Feel free to check out either of these: ua-cam.com/video/1ckG3QgK_Qo/v-deo.html and ua-cam.com/video/TNxGzHTvGNI/v-deo.html
Such a simple loom, easy to build, and a thorough explanation. I'd love to see a video showing ways to finish off the projects. Nice work.
Thank you! Please subscribe cause you never know what instructional videos we'll have in store for you. ;)
thank you - I am learning to try to connect with my grandmother. it’s very special to share

The best loom construction and how to video I have seen thank you so much for sharing your knowledge!

Thanks for your comment!
Oh
I really appreciate that you are bringing this education to people who can access it from around the world!
@@stephenbamford it is very generous. A trait I find comforting amongst my indigenous sisters and brothers.
Wow! Ingenious! Thank you sooo much for your excellent tutorial! Using two lines at each side makes so much sense. You’re amazing!❤️
Thank you, this looks simple enough for me to make. You explain everything. This loom is going to work for me perfectly.
None of the store bought looms I had been working on were wide enough for my beading. Now I don’t have to worry about that!
I really liked your video and how you explained this how to use this loom. I am new looker and love to learn. Thank you!

I am going to get my wood tomorrow to make my loom like yours then I am going to make some pieces of beading thanks for all the input
Woah! I'd never seen it done this way, I'll have to start doing this on my own stuff. Fantastic, man.
The knot is quick release you always tie a horses lead rope like that just in case of emergency
Thanks so much for this. I was wondering how to use these types of looms. I've only used the store bought wire looms
Loved it.
Thank you so much for your knowledge and expertise on this it is most welcome...well done

Love your video by the way 👍
Nice 👌 thank you 😊 💓
Hey, good work
Awesome, thank you so much.
Where did you get that spool of thread? Its humongous! I have never seen one that big before. I could definitetly use a spool that large.
Amazon! Nymo thread
really enjoyed this tutorial
Thanks for you comment, Linda!
what do you do with the extra thread? seems like a lot of waste even though this looks super easy to do
You saw. She turned her loom over and made more items. Fill the loom up.
those are amazing but do you have a y adjustable ones?
Thanks! Great tutorial!

How do you do the ending part at the end at the finishing part
Im new to bead looming so this loom is homemade or handmade? Im using a conventional type😕
Hi Verna. We believe that the loom was handmade!
Hi not sure what size beads to use? what do you think is the best size we do not get mayuki beads here.
it's personal preference. I use 10/0 czech preciosa seed beads. There are several sizes though.
M
size 10 /0 Czech and their more even in size.
Yes. Up to the individual bearer and their level of skill, and how good their coordination and eyesight is.

This is wonderful! I can’t find where to buy beads that are as uniform in size as yours are- can you recommend?
I think Miyuki Delicate beads are pretty uniform and good for loom beading.
Delica, not delicate.
Miyuki Delica Cylinder Seed Beads, Size 11/0.
What kind of thread you recomnend for it?
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Very nice tutorial! I would love to make a loom like this. Do you have instructions for it, or a tutorial video.

where can I buy
Nice
Wat kind of thread do u use? I Can only buy little spools in the Netherlands
You would use F to wrap the loom and B to weave through the beads.
Portage College that’s the problem. The dont sell this in Holland....Only C-Lon and that kind of stuf....
