[Sca-List] warping board?

[Carolyn James]

It's a fairly simple tool. To see how one is used:
http://www.interweave.com/weave/handwoven_magazine/web_projects/warping_steps.asp
in the step by step instructions they show you where the pegs go in
the board. My board has the two pegs for the cross at the top and the
bottom. Ideally you'd like the horizontal distance across the board to
be one yard (or meter if you prefer), including the turn around the
peg.  I'd use sturdy pegs and you probably want them at least 3-6"
long.  You'll want as many pegs vertically down the side for as long
as a warp as you'll want to do. I'd guess at least six yards but
probably ten yards.

I have two if you'd like to come see and measure them. One is a small
one I've mounted to the wall (like Jeanne-Marie's) and the other is a
portable free standing warping board with a collapsable frame. It
stores easily and will do up a yard up to 20 yards long.
Good luck,
Rozsa
