Thank you, Alan, for giving me some insight into the world of loop fabrication. I've been gathering information on loops for a week or so and there is so much out there that it is nice to see someone that has built two that work. I like your gimbal ideas....I will be using a quilting hoop (from JoAnn Fabrics) and will gimbal it like your loop as opposed to spllitting it at the top and removing a section of the wood that would otherwise help support the entire structure.

Again, thanks. AND my R-1000 says "thanks", too!

I think you posted the wrong pic. That's no mess at all :)

Thanks mate. :)

There is indeed a bit of disorder required in creating things, but I try to control it now days so I have the room to work in!

Always remember a; "A tidy mind is never creative."
