Hand twining looms

A loom comprising:

• (a) a plurality of elongated loom finger elements, each of said elements having a first and a second end and an elongated groove therein, each said groove running the length of each said element;
• (b) a first loom finger support means including first and second surfaces interconnected by a plurality of openings, each of said openings adapted to slidably receive one of said loom finger elements, said surfaces being spaced from each other a distance which, in conjunction with the diameter of said openings is sufficient to position said plurality of said loom finger elements in substantially parallel fashion;
• (c) a second loom finger support means, said second support mean including a third surface for supporting one of said first or second ends of each of said loom finger elements when said first loom finger support means is assembled with said second loom finger support means and when said loom finger elements are received in said openings of said first loom finger support means;
• and
• (d) means provided on said first and second loom finger support means for detachably assembling said first loom finger support means relative to said second loom finger support means, whereby said first and second surfaces are spaced altitudinaly with respect to said third surface, and whereby each of said loom finger elements passes through one of said openings in said first loom finger support means has its said first or second end in contact with said third surface, and whereby, when said means for detachably assembling are not positioning said first loom finger support means relative to said second loom finger support means, said loom finger elements can be moved relative to said openings by moving said first loom finger support means toward said ends which contacted said third surface.
