: I have the same problem with spruce... Too hard to gat and too expensive.

: For a hollow loom you can get the same thing with two strips, pinched
: together at thier ends and blocked open in thier middle. Cap that all off
: with two wide strips, and you have a hollow loom... I can send you a
: picture tonight if you like.
Interesting idea Don,I know you have built quite a number of GP's so you know a few more tricks than me and yes a photo would be much appreciated.I have a pretty good idea what you mean however.
Thanks
