Ohhhh, the absence of an air compressor. Positively civilized, Kaz. I cannot wait to see here what comes off of this loom.

Sometime, if you have time, it would be fantastic if you’d put more about how they computerize Toika’s on your blog. Info about what the various boxes that attach to the loom are….and just a little more info than is currently available online.

I know my loom can be computerized, and my nearest dealer is a 2.5 hour drive from here – so I’m trying to just understand some basics. I will definitely visit their shop next time I’m headed in that direction….but would love to understand more before I see it in person.

If you’re not into posting that sort of thing, I totally understand….but I love Toika looms and I wish there was more info about them in English online! (As opposed to when I search for Glimakra and find tons of detailed info.)

Enjoy your loom!!! I love the video of you weaving with it!!

Thanks for the update! The Toika is on my “when I win the lottery” list, so a first-hand report is useful

It looks amazing and I still haven’t come to terms with the concept of 80epi yet. Happy untangling!
