How Do You Make A Rag Rug Loom?
Don’t throw out your old clothes when you can recycle them into beautiful and practical rugs. But you won’t find a loom to weave them in a typical department stores. If you want to make your own rag rug loom and have a bit of woodworking in you, then give it a go. A loom makes for a nice weekend project and should only take a couple of hours to complete. Lay out your boards with the two long ones on either side and the shorter ones at the ends. Square them off and screw the end ones into the side ones using the 3-inch wood screws and an electric drill. Pre-drill pilot holes if using hardwood. This is the framework of your rag rug loom. Reinforce the loom by adding the four L brackets to each inside corner. Before you start to screw them in, measure diagonally from corner to corner and make sure that the measurements are the same by pushing the frame into place. This will keep your frame square. Screw the brackets in place with the 1-inch wood screws. Mark the top and bottom of the loom
