Beaming the warp

End of the warp spread across the raddle on the back beam.

And the rest spread across the floor

These handy fishing weights are like a spare pair of hands for me at this stage.

They hold the warp under tension while I wind it on

Rolling on with protection between layers. I love big posters, especially laminated ones.

Bit by bit the choke ties are discarded and the warp is wound on. Finally it reaches the cross at the other end of the warp.
