Inkle Loom Design & Construction

by Jim MacLachlan

Overview

If you want to buy, design, &/or build an Inkle loom, this book is for you. It will show the weaver what to look for in a loom, as well as how to modify, repair, or build their own with minimal tools. They're great projects for woodworkers since they’re fairly simple, generally forgiving to construct, & they make a unique, useful gift that can be made inexpensively. I'll explain the basics, design considerations, & include plans/drawings for nine looms, from lap to floor size, along with ideas for others & possible modifications.

About the Author

I grew up on the family farm with horses, sheep, cattle, fowl, dogs, cats, & a lot of other critters in north central Maryland. While the farm paid for itself, the family remodeling business was the steady income. I worked at that for about 15 years until an injury forced me to change my computer hobby into my career. It was tough at the time, but a great career move from an economic standpoint.

Now I'm the entire IT department for a small manufacturing company in Louisville, KY. My wife of 35+ years & I have a small hobby farm with horses, goats, dogs, & a cat. Taking care of the farm, woodworking, & various fiber arts take up my free time.
