Ok so I officially have a ridiculous amount of loom pictures. It made sense at the time I promise you. I selected the most interesting ones.

The little metal things at the top left are what drop down to stop the loom when a thread breaks or slackens. They still use them today. The second shot is Reza from Crisp playing with a loom. They let you do stuff to keep you interested.

The third picture is the stop the line (jidoka) loom.
