Abstract

An adjustable loom comprising a first adjustable rectangular frame having two spaced, parallel, elongated, rigid uprights of substantially equal length. The uprights are longitudinally hollow. Two rigid, elongated, parallel extending leg members of substantially equal length are rigidly secured at the ends thereof to the lower ends, respectively, of the uprights. The leg members extend orthogonally from the uprights in the same direction. The leg members are also hollow. A first horizontal bar is rigidly secured at the opposite ends thereof to one side of the lower portions, respectively, of said uprights thereby providing a rigid framework of said uprights, leg members and bar. A second rectangular upright frame having two rigid frame elements telescoped into said uprights, respectively, has an elongated, horizontal bar rigidly secured at the opposite ends thereof to the upper ends of the frame elements. Means are provided for adjustably positioning the frame elements in the uprights with said two bars being maintained parallel and horizontal. The first and second bars are mounted on the same sides of the frame elements and uprights.
