The blue beam is under way. Somehow it doesn't feel real while I'm plying the cones. It's when the thread starts to wind onto the beam that I have truly committed to the design.
The vision for this beam is kind of complex: early morning light reflecting from water in a foggy lagoon. This means deep blue-greens, lots of grey-blues, and some pure grey. We'll see whether I reach my goal or whether the muse steps in with a different idea...

Hi, Just found your blog. I sectional warp most of the time. I have frequent problems with my tension box. Ends tangle and break, then just becomes a mess. Is your tension box an AVL tension or did you custom make it? Your warp seems to wind on so smooth. Thanks, Ernie
Hi, Ernie,
I custom made my tension box and I'm surprised it has lasted so long! I expected to replace it with a "professional" one by now.
I'll write a blog post in the next few days that answers your question in more depth.
Thanks for asking!
