Bead loom

 There is various bead looms on the market.  I learn how it work with this one:

It was a class at the craft store, the one that is neared of my home.. I remember, when I was a teenager.  At the time, I didn't knew about bead looms.  It wasn't available where I lived (in the deep deep wood).  So, I was wondering how it was made. I thought it was made on machine or something on industrial level.  I had a nice piece at the time.  I didn't wanted to destroy it to see how it was made.  No close examination either.  I was curious but not hungrily curious.

Now, I am a bit more knowledgeable.   I know how it can be done.  I also have everything to do it.  I have given some projects I had to two people.  I know there is some videos on the internet on how it is done.  How to get started on various kind of looms.  I think I am ready to try on other looms.  To see which one I like the best.  Maybe I will end up liking each one for a specific type of projects.  I possess another loom that I want to try.  It is also very portable and light.  I think it will be great for narrow projects. 

Now that I know how it work (in essence), it will be easy to adapt myself to the loom.  With some big holidays coming, I may end up doing a project on it.  I just want to have an different project to do on a loom, to vary the gifts I give.
