Work of the frame begins





Weaver's log, Earthdate 25082017
This summer I have decided to continue the work on the tent. The way I'm going to do this is by first sawing one tent out of cotton canvas with a pine frame. I will do this for two main reasons one: its a lot cheaper to mess up with and see what bits will be a problem and get a pattern for my wool, the second reason is that I want one in canvas too as I don't want to use the wool one too much as of its value and weight. The first thing I did was nail some scrap wood together to get a 3D perspective of inner size and I might expand it to as I got more fabric now then my floor loom fabric isn't getting felted down to 65cm width from its 82cm. I also tested different roof pole hights. As am Not in school any more work will be more on a sporadic basis then a nine to five thing.
