Hi,

I'm a newbie...but this is something that I can help with.  An excellent 
place to buy a loom is from the "River Farm."  I will get the info at 
lunch.  I attended classes there last fall and bought 2 looms.  The lady 
there (can't remember her name) sold good quality looms at reasonable 
prices.  You might also check the paper as I have seen some in the for 
sale ads.
