Lacis Bead Loom

Instructions for using the LB98 Lacis Bead Loom

[@marciah0312]

Although I've read several negative comments about this tutorial, I find it's well done and perfectly logical. BUT I've been doing loom beadwork for many years now. So I'd suggest to the people who are flummoxed by this video, that they start with a small loom to make a smaller piece for beginners and work their way up. Thank you very much, I learned several helpful pointers! Now I want to make a larger panel for a friend. xx

I love this loom. I have made four tapestries with it so far, and was thinking of buying a wider one. Then it occured to me all that was needed was a wider bar on the top and bottom. My husband made the bars for me and I now have the option of making items wider!! I have the stand as well, and it is made so it can widen quite far, so it takes the wider bars. Wonderful!!

[@alethiapotter9218]

All of the little tricks make it much easier.

I just got this loom. Get 2 springs and screw them into the top and bottom cross bars.

This is a clever design and the video shows very clearly how it is used along with some helpful general beading tips. I will be making one for myself. I am new to beading but it is clear to me that the continuous warp is a nice feature. For those having difficulty, you do have internet access. I suggest you use KZbin, Google, and Amazon to your advantage. It's all out there, and most of it is free. Happy beading :)

Bead loom kit I love you Beads santa

[@drivanovich]

Wow! what HUGE and beautiful beadwork!

[@anns9143]

it's an ok loom but I would start on a small loom to begin learning bead weaving.

[@brendawiwchar8728]

What size elastic do you use?, as I lost the one that came with the loom.

[@conhecereisaverdadeeaverda4365]

[@KANGURASK]

where can i get this beadloom and the patron?

[@speedyhoward7577]

Do your research for a superior loom. I was given this loom from my son. You will get no support from this company. The video they provide is of inferior quality so it will be of little use to you. Buy it and that's all you will get from this company. If you decide to buy this loom, there are other companies that sell it. No need to buy directly from Lacis. If you meant "pattern" instead of "patron" you won't get it. There are a few other things, too, you will need to be able to use this loom. Good luck.

[@speedyhoward7577]

Well now, you do exist! I have tried to get some sort of response for over a year, but nothing. Customer support is foreign to you. By the way, how is your "grandson" (I am assuming) that put out a video of a yarn winder that Lacis sells. Got a response from him. Quite the dirty little mouth he has.

[@lisajarvis3820]

How much does the Lacis loom cost in £ please!! I live in Wales UK!!

[@indianwomandistantcousinof5741]

sub to Christopher Demetrick he makes these for a little of nothing.

[@speedyhoward7577]

You'd better know how to use it before purchasing this loom. This video that they provide on You Tube is of very low quality and incomplete. The only response you will get from this company will be related to cost and purchase. No more. I have tried to get response from this company for probably two years. Still nothing. There are other looms out there that are superior to this one. Do some research.

[@indianwomandistantcousinof5741]

oh yeah the ones he make are more for jewelry then the other stuff

[@indianwomandistantcousinof5741]

look what I just found it great for making jewelry bracelets or necklaces www.artbeads.com/tool-0220.html up to 9 inches . i may get this on in stead

[@speedyhoward7577]

The Lacis loom is intended more for making larger items, longer and wider. My son gave me this one a few years ago and while I think it's going to be a lot of fun once I figure out how to use it, I'm petrified that I'm going to fail miserably on my first try. But, hey, the worst that can happen can be fixed by just taking the piece apart and starting over. The one you're looking at seems to be very popular with some good tutorials. Good luck and enjoy!

[@janmcmullan468]

you don't show how to take it of the loom

[@speedyhoward7577]

He doesn't show how to do anything. The video sucks.

[@PossumPityParty]

for those who also might not know this: you cut them. just cut along the end, many inches away from the work. You then need to weave in the ends. There's more in depth videos on YT about that. This is actually a good looking loom. It's not hard once you start.

[@speedyhoward7577]

I have never done bead weaving *got this for Christmas) and have no idea what you are talking about. I have managed to put the loom together but after that I am completely lost. For me to understand any of this video, you need to slow down, zoom in so I can see what you are doing and don't skip through parts of the instructions.I know I'll enjoy this craft eventually, but for now, it's useless. If you can't improve these instructions, perhaps you could suggest another site that would fit my needs. Thank you.

[@speedyhoward7577]

I have tried to get assistance from this company, once a year ago and once two days ago. They do not respond to your comments. I have tried to make sense out of their "tutorial" but it is by no means helpful. If you have gotten this loom, all I can say is good luck. Their goal was to sell you this loom, then you're on your own.

[@indianwomandistantcousinof5741]

[@speedyhoward7577]

I had hoped that you would have responded to my comment because I REALLY want to learn to use this loom. It is extremely disappointing to find out that Lacis has no more interest in this loom other than to sell it. As I said in my earlier comment, I will eventually figure out how it works, but not because of any instruction from you. Rest assured that you will not be getting a positive review for this product. And I will never consider purchasing anything else from your company. Very disappointing.

[@speedyhoward7577]

Any chance that you will put out a video that is not so inferior to this one. Or is your sole purpose still to only sell the loom. I don't understand why you even bothered to put out a video if this was the "best" you were willing to provide. Doesn't say much for your company. Have a nice day.

[@jeffo1110]

Neither this video nor the loom shown are inferior, though it might be labeled for itermediate level bead weavers as it does assume at least some knowledge weaving and beading. Pay attention to the wording-he does, indeed give some weaving tips.

[@speedyhoward7577]

Jeff Blatter The video is absolutely inferior. There are places where, while explaining something, they just skip thru it like it doesn't matter. And other sections are just static so I have no idea what was being said or shown. Yes, I can surf the net but I would really like to get instruction from the company I got the loom from. The absolute least they could do was respond to me. It's been 3 years and not one reply. That is just rude and unprofessional. If you think that the video is acceptable, I'm sorry, but I don't think your standards are high enough. Having said all if this, someday I'll figure out how to use this loom, and will have a ball doing it. Have a good day!

[@NoBootyBeauty]

@@speedyhoward7577 - have you had any luck with working this loom yet? I only use a frame loom for making woven wall hangings (easy to learn, hard to master!!!), but I can feel your frustration and I'm sorry this company has been so slack in it's feedback. Hopefully you found what you needed elsewhere on yt or the net. I give this video a thumbs doooown for you.
