read the instructions. After deciding to forge on with my weaving and NOT unweaving seven inches of pretty ugly stuff, it was still bothering me that I didn't know something as basic as how to back up my warp. So I got out the manual, and on the VERY last paragraph of the VERY last page, I read this:OK, so where in the heck is the "plastic spacer that is on the outside of the gear housing"? Flipping back a few pages, I found this diagram:
All right, that where it is on the diagram, but where is it on the loom? Looking around a bit, I discovered this on the left side of the front of the loom, where the cloth advance system attaches to the front beam:
You can see a little plastic piece that goes about 3/4 of the way around "the outside of the gear housing". So now I know the first step in backing up the warp. I'm afraid to experiment with it now that I have the ppi right. I'm going to wait until I really mess up again. It won't be long.
