You'd basically be turning it into a horizontally woven warp weighted loom. It would probably depend a lot on _what_ you were weaving though, and I think warp weighted looms give a slightly different feel to the fabric. I'm planning (at some point) to do a sampler piece that is a copy of something I've done on my warp weighted loom - if it turns out that I'm not imagining the difference then I may have to try the weighting thing.<BR/><BR/>The disadvantage I can see with something like this is that you'd want to weight the warp in sections, and then it gets fairly tedious moving the weights. But with such a long drop you'd get a reasonable run before you had toSonyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05010349116635664782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27254015.post-87474461675723190542008-10-18T21:46:00.000+13:002008-10-18T21:46:00.000+13:00Gosh, you're in a good place, Taueret.

His is horizontal but he says if room is an issue you can do it vertically. I heard him say it on the DVD's that Complex Weavers is selling from his most recent interview. The DVD's are 2 x $18 and well worth the money.
