This is the only video I've found that shows the weaving process with a heddle bar. It seems you can't beat with it the way you can with a rigid heddle. I wonder if you could beat with the shuttle, maybe after you've changed the shed and are inserting the next "row". It would make this go a bit faster and the row would be more even than if you used a comb/fork. Combs are fine for narrow warps but this one is wide.

I wonder why the installed the bar after wrapping instead of using it to wrap like in the other video ?

The warping process looked complicated to me. Maybe it's easier to keep track of the threads without the heddle bar in place. This is slower than warping with the heddle bar though because you have to move the threads into the right place.

This is not a beginner-friendly tutorial. They skip lots of steps at the beginning...and they don't show how to finish the weaving, with or without a fringe. It simply says to finish the weaving (yeah, but HOW?!?!). I really wish they had shown this to a beginner, listened to the questions they still have after watching the video, and then filled in the many, many blanks. I love this company -- their looms are gorgeous and the fiber is excellent. But if you're hoping for beginner friendly tutorials, this is not it. Search for "frame loom weaving" and you'll find others have posted good videos on how to warp and begin/finish weavings. The video I followed for warping showed how to do it with the heddle in place at the beginning...so much easier to follow than adding the heddle at the end.
