DIY Loom + Electric Spinning Wheel - Printed Tee From Scratch

Показать описание

In anticipation of the t-shirt I'm growing from scratch, I sought some outside help to custom build a couple tools I'll be needing: an electric spinning wheel and a loom.

That's actually a really clever way to make a heddle. I've been trying to find a cost-effective way to build a loom at home, and my biggest challenge was the heddle because of the tiny holes/density needed for finer threads. Can't wait to finally get mine up and running!

Y'all's intern, Annalise, did an awesome job! I can't wait to see what y'all do with the loom and motor system.

I bet a few people copy that loom design from the video.
It was good the way she laid out all the dimensions in an easy way so you can actually do it yourself.

Ok I love that shop with all the used equipment. I could start so many projects that never get finished.

Annalise seems like a really awesome person! They're clearly very talented and intelligent, i hope we can see more of their work in the future!

Making a new shirt so you can throw out the blood stained one?

Tip for the next loom: instead of running that tedious series of loops, place one bobbin of thread per eye and gap, then install a simple friction brake (could just be a heavy rod in contact with the bobbin ends, or a pair of them pinching the threads before they enter the heddle). Yes, that array will be larger than the loom, but you can stack them as long as the threads don’t come into contact. This also puts less of a restriction on your maximum length.
Even more complex: build your heddle out of tiny blocks on the end of pivot sticks. In the block put a small hook or the eye of a needle. The other end is raised or lowered by pegs on a roller. And tada, you’ve built a jaquard loom!

I just love how you young folks are embracing this old and practical technology to make a couple articles of clothing. Makes me smile.

Good luck! Nothing says durable like no bearings and hot glue.

Damn Annalise is impressive as hell. They're so talented and smart!

in the factory i worked at they used to card it then comb it, drafted, then roving then to spinning, winding, starching then weaving. from the carding combing and drafting machines it came out as a sliver (like thick weak rope)

I can't wait to see how you dye the final cloth. Also, kudos to Annalise for the loom design, it's awesome! How did you get into weaving?
