Thank you so much for your kind words! Happy Weaving!

I found mine on Etsy.com- search for narrow band loom

Thank you! I have a Bernzomatic and I love it! Get any one that stays on after you turn it on without you needing to hold a button. I have another one that is annoying because I can't release the flame button. Bernzomatic has a couple different tips too. A good investment!

@@danaharrisseeger thank you! I will have to visit their website and see what I can find

Yes, here is a video on how I "warp" the double slotted rigid heddle: th-cam.com/video/SoLU8Eg-Xoo/w-d-xo.html

Here's a video on how I created my pattern: th-cam.com/video/fCTPm0FoxxI/w-d-xo.html hope that helps!

Thanks so much!

Hi! I double the red so it is thicker and stands "up" against the background. It fills in the gaps with the weft and makes the pattern more apparent. You can also use a thicker yarn if you want instead

This is the one I used: www.etsy.com/listing/583276507/4-rigid-heddle-loom-cardweaving-loom?click_key=333de0412e28e82a4047104741242de1b541efa2%3A583276507&click_sum=1e40d911&ga_order=most_relevant&ga_search_type=all&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_search_query=narrow+band+loom&ref=sr_gallery-1-1&organic_search_click=1&sts=1&ret=1&content_source=1ccec50b175818546f925c225fe1c377e8998f09%253A583276507 they also make a wider one that works with a wider rigid heddle

Thanks so much for watching!

I am so sorry! I wish I could change it. Maybe try muting and using closed caption subtitles? I will try posting a new version soon thanks!

You would need a bigger loom. I made a 2" belt with a rigid heddle that has 37 holes- for that many warp threads. If you wanted to make a wider belt, you would need a heddle with twice that many warp threads.

@@clairegalbraith9028 thank you! It’s a narrow band loom I got on Etsy: www.etsy.com/listing/583276507/4-rigid-heddle-loom-cardweaving-loom?gpla=1&gao=1&&EAIaIQobChMIhpHdzODbhwMVxw-tBh0OPA8bEAQYASABEgLOXPD_BwE_k_&gad_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAADtcfRLu53WyjqtSOg5RKMcUie6Qq&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIhpHdzODbhwMVxw-tBh0OPA8bEAQYASABEgLOXPD_BwE

Thank you so much! I will add one of those as well. Cheers!

Thanks for asking! I know from years of experience and working with multiple mediums that yes, you can paint encaustic over acrylic. The main thing is you want an absorbent surface for the encaustic to stick, and if you keep the encaustic thin or make sure that you mix in something absorbent such as marble dust (calcium carbonate) add collage with paper that has a tooth, etc. your encaustic won’t peel or fall off over time. Hope that helps!

I don't have another video, but I usually use a couple baby wipes and then you can rinse with warm water and a scrubby sponge. If the linoleum is unmounted it can warp with the water, so dry it with paper towel or regular towel and then press under some books before using again.

Thanks so much! I have not tried those but let me know if you try!!

You can make it a little thicker or thinner but not too much difference.

Oh my gosh I’m so sorry!

Thank you! The craft iron came from Michael’s or Hobby Lobby, and you can get the anodized aluminum hot plate from R&F encaustic supplies!

You could also use a pancake griddle...Target, Walmart have them..everybody sells them..LOL I found mine at thrift stores, all working 100%. As for the iron, I use a small travel iron, a regular iron and a Veneer edge banding sealing iron, which you can get at any home improvement store or Amazon. They run between $86-$93. With a regular iron, I was told to find one with a flat base..no holes. I have both and they work the same. The holes are for steam and wax + steam =😮 LOL If you're undecided, maybe you know another artist who uses them...and can let you try. Have fun!!!

Hi there, paper has a tendency to yellow over time when exposed to air and light, especially if it contains acid. You will notice old newspapers that are brittle and discolored. Acid free paper doesn’t do that so it is archival and preserves the integrity of the artwork as it was first made. Cheers

I'm sorry we are made to be enemies. It's unfortunate that the world can't work together and accomplish great things with each other. 😢

@@rorywest4937 Пока Вы считаете себя врагом так и будет с Вами. Вы мои СОСЕДИ по земному шару. Он не такой большой и он единственный где мы можем жить. Никуда нам соседям с него не деться. Любые границы это глупости. Вы и я сидим за одним большим столом и питаемся из одного котла. У нас у всех одна еда, одна вода, одни и то же меню. Все пьют воду, лимонад, едят мороженое, куру, свинину, говядину, салат, рыбу. Всё одинаково. Даже работаем одним инструментом. --------------------------------------------------------- Кстати сделал станок. Все в восторге, Преподаватели и ученики. Если вам нужно будет прятать остаток нити в материале то вам поможет "игла для поднятия петель". Там крючок для штопки женских колготок. крючок с накидной защёлкой чтоб не цеплять материал. Очень удобно. -------------------------------- As long as you consider yourself an enemy, so it will be with you. You are my NEIGHBORS around the globe. It's not that big and it's the only place we can live. We neighbors can't get away from it. Any boundaries are nonsense. You and I are sitting at the same big table and eating from the same pot. We all have the same food, the same water, the same menu. Everyone drinks water, lemonade, ice cream, chicken, pork, beef, salad, fish. Everything is the same. We even work with one tool. --------------------------------------------------------- By the way, I made a machine. Everyone is delighted, Teachers and students. If you need to hide the rest of the thread in the material, then the "loop lifting needle" will help you. There's a hook for darning women's tights. a hook with a hinged latch so as not to cling to the material. Very convenient. God bless you.

@@MaFed191080 please understand what I am saying. I want to be friends with you and only wish you the best. I did not mean to sound angry or aggressive. Sorry if I wrote something wrong. I hope we can all eat food together and share our crafts with each other. 🙏🤝

Hi Maxim, it is called a rigid heddle narrow band loom

@@danaharrisseeger Спасибо. Посмотрел. В нашем регионе таких нет. Проще сделать своими руками. Ничего сложного.

Yes it can!!! Absolutely- you just put the warp through the tablets instead of the heddle

@@danaharrisseeger Thank you :)

That’s exactly what it was😂 from a childhood Nutcracker

Thanks for watching! I have a really old photocopy machine, but laser prints with toner work. Sometimes the older machines work better because the toner releases more easily. You can experiment with different solvents too- sometimes wintergreen oil works or “Citrasolv” a citrus cleanser. Acetate also works but use a ventilated area

That’s soo cool I use citrasolv for other mixed media. I am still clueless.. what do u do rub it on the picture it won’t just slide off. I use old National Geographic with citrus and it makes great work. I’d be happy to show you a piece if you’d like.

Thanks for watching! Before you put on the wax you can use a variety of glue from Elmer’s white glue to spray glue. For Acetate I would use spray mount like Super 77 so the acetate doesn’t wrinkle.

Sure! Here is the site I get them from : diamondcoretools.com/products/3-piece-starter-set-p1-p2-p5?variant=32524932743308&currency=USD&gad_source=1&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIhOTq7-2_hQMVZBetBh1cfwe1EAQYAiABEgI44fD_BwE

Yes! I know what you mean. Speedball sells a Screen Cleaner that is specifically for that stuff. I squirt it on, and let it sit for a minute to a minute and a half and then blast it off with a pressure hose. You can do that a couple times if it doesn't completely come off. Hope that helps! www.hobbylobby.com/Art-Supplies/Project-Supplies/Block-Printing/Speed-Clean-Screen-Cleaner/p/8548?srsltid=AfmBOorEkJ0v7Zyh_W92gzjIRDWFxxyNRJGJRtKIpdzB6OPJo9A6qloBgrg

Thanks! You know about 1/3 of teaching is entertaining!

Thanks! I heard that before about the music. I'll bear that in mind for future videos Cheers!
