Here is my old bed frame loom on its way to completing a fleece lock rug, I have put this aside now for my new to me upright tapestry/rug loom.
Since writing this I saw a lovely 30" Macomber jack loom on ebay, put the only bid in and bought it, drove it down from the north west, what a lovely loom. I think it had been wet at some time (floods)? so as dismantled I gave it a good sanding and protective matt varnish, looks beautiful now, I have recently discovered from its nameplate and number that it was made in March 1971.
