Mister helped me install the Ashford Looms Freedom Roller on my 48” rigid heddle loom. I am weaving a long, thick wool rug and I want to ensure I have enough space on the front beam to accommodate the cloth.
I recorded every step of the installation and at the end of the video I tie the warp to the front beam and show how to advance the freedom roller.
The kit parts for the smaller Ashford rigid heddle looms will be different but I hope this video still helps.

Thank you so much for making this, I couldn’t find anything else about the freedom roller online. I’m going to try mine out this week. Any advice? Do I need a longer warp? I’d appreciate any advice you have. Thanks 😊

Hi Anne! I used the freedom roller when I wove a really long runner rug - the warp was over 5 yards/ 4.5 meters and the woven cloth was really thick. You can use it with whatever length warp you want (it will need to be long enough to reach from the front beam to the back beam). If you have the 48" loom, you can't use your loom stand. The loom will need to be clamped to a table. I also found it easier to warp the loom with a really long warp by doing a hybrid warping technique I learned from Amy McKnight. Here's a link to the 1st video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-EPJqU6iblJk.html

i bought a loom, and now i will never buy another... i hope... i want to make looms out of everything i see! some fire was lit inside me as soon as i started watching people weave. have been so curious as to what this add-on does. Thank you.

Making looms sounds like a very exciting thing to do!
