The Bow Loom is seen in early Medieval Illustration. The Tapes or Bands made on this loom type were indispensable accessories and were used for reinforcing and fixing all manner of fabric items. The loom can be used with Rigid Heddles or Cards. Would also be a good Beading Loom.
The Warp can be wrapped around the Top Beam or just wound around the end as in photo 2. I have not had trouble with it getting tangled.
I use 8/4 Carpet Warp for the Warp and Wool for the Weft.
This is my version of a very rare and poorly illustrated and poorly documented loom form. The solution to the difficulty in its design is dream derived.
Bow Making technologies are used in its structure.
