I am the proud new owner of a Baby Wolf. I am following Janet Dixon's Craftsy class and have managed to successfully warp the loom but I cannot seem to get the cloth beam tension to work correctly. The back beam tension worked fine when I was winding the warp onto the back beam,
For winding cloth onto the cloth beam
1) is the back beam handle on the nut or hanging loose?
2) is the foot brake on or off?
3) should the handle in front be up or down? My handle is loose and ordinarily just flops down, but I can move it up and use it to move the toothed gear. However it doesn't seem to stay where I put it.
What am I missing?
I was a bit disappointed that the loom didn't come with any use instructions at all. Thank God for the internet. Since every loom is different I expected at least a little bit of an instruction manual on this loom (there were way more instructions on how to USE the Flip than there were for this much more complicated loom). The assembly instructions and video were excellent, though.
