I have a basic Ashford rigid heddle loom, and did not build a loom myself. In my copious free time (tm) I think I'd rather like to try to build a punch card controlled Jacquard rigid heddle system for it and similar looms, though.
That's gorgeous.
Looms are tricky (when larger, smaller ones are easy), but doable. A mod is a nice way to focus on the really interesting bits (and a good excuse to buy and restore a cardpunch ;) ).
Life is a series of projects...
Oh, no. This would be a de novo punch design, lifting heddles with a purely mechanical action. We'll see how it goes.
