Student's Loom

The most basic loom, used to weave spun fibres into fabric:

Output	Input
1 canvas	60 twine
1 linen	400 thread
1 basket	200 dried papyrus
1 sail	400 thread
1 Silk Cloth	50 raw silk

All weaving operations incur an END timer (60 TeppySec for females, 80 TeppySec for males).

Every time the student loom is used, it breaks a random (up to 120) amount of twine and must be restrung before it can be used again.

The loom is also a container for 5000 thread, 5000 dried papyrus, 3000 twine and 3000 raw silk.

To build:

Construction costs:

• 8 boards
• 120 twine

Built: in a compound, uses 4x7 cells

Skill/Tech required: Clothwork

Comments

• Build a hand loom as soon as possible - it doesn't break twine.
  • The original description of the student loom was:

The student's loom is the lowest tech loom. It breaks twine every time you use it, and is therefore commonly considered "the worst thing ever created." Build a hand loom instead. Please. For the love of all that is holy.
