am starting to think that there is nothing less helpful and correct than the manuals for fiber arts tools
#the manual for assembling my spinning wheel was 1) wholly incorrect on several counts#2) in direct conflict with the instructions on the video they linked to#3) the instructions in the video were also incorrect#we literally just had to figure it out ourselves bc following the directions wasn't even POSSIBLE#well. coming to a similar problem with the directions for this loom#trying to string the harnesses. it is not working#also cut up all my nice handspun cord only to find that the measurements they provided are not correct#in retrospect should have tried them before cutting them all to length so thats on me#but i am so frustrated#the rest of it went together ok#i think i am gonna put this away for now and try again on my next day off#my sister cant figure it out either which is how i know we're really screwed#might work on building a warping board. got the wood for it today while at home depot looking for parts#of which they had none and sent me on several wild goose chases around the store#has not been a good day so far
