I know that whenever I work with something new to me be it a new loom, a new art medium or technique, I hate it. It is frustrating and sometimes down right hard. Keep at it a while though and things start to smooth out and it gets easier and you start to think, maybe I like this after all! Now, I know you have the added complications of a rather complex machine but keep at it! The problems that you are working on now will teach you much. It is one of the reasons why I try to build and fix things on my own even though at times I am literally screaming with frustration! You will get it and one day when you are weaving your wonderful handwoven creations, you will start to love it. Hopefully the important information you need will come soon.R.

Since AVL arrived I have been in constant contact with the president. It wasn't until I was passed on to Melody, AVL guru, that I started getting solutions to many issues. She's wonderful and has more clout with the president than I have myself. And she's very patient and talks in laymans terms. I'm still waiting for 2 manuals I was promised back in November....these e-lift and dobby versions have been around for 2 years and still no manuals, only previous versions have manuals. I can't believe they aren't hearing from everyone buying a V-Series loom, and I've heard others had issues with other models taking 3-4 months to work out the bugs.Cindie https://www.blogger.com/profile/00417973211775970549noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5196798951942000203.post-83215841559651389702012-01-06T12:22:08.583-08:002012-01-06T12:22:08.583-08:00Hi again,
I'm sorry I missed the detail about ...Hi again,<br />I'm sorry I missed the detail about it being an AVL! (duh!)<br /><br />I've been thinking about what you said, and came to the conclusion that maybe its something that AVL needs to hear?! Their looms shouldn't be that much trouble to get set up and under way...and I'm sure its something they would rather not happen as they are in the business of selling looms.<br /><br />So, give the problem back to them to deal with? With digital photos and video they should be able to do more than they have. I'm sure that Melody is trying but its not working for you (Those looms are not cheap!)<br /><br />Big hug from a bit further north,<br />SusanSusan https://www.blogger.com/profile/09707139508896058818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5196798951942000203.post-46913683451547478842012-01-06T08:31:41.732-08:002012-01-06T08:31:41.732-08:00How frustrating!

I knew someone who moved up from their 16 harness AVL dobby that he loved to an even bigger computerized AVL and loved it even more. I got to weave on both of them and AVL has been my dream loom ever since. They worked like a dream. I hope your new AVL will work out at least as well. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you.Acorn to Oakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14334558675705027610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5196798951942000203.post-48130769109558128342012-01-06T08:02:25.462-08:002012-01-06T08:02:25.462-08:00It's not a Louet Susan, it's an AVL. I do ...It's not a Louet Susan, it's an AVL. I do have a tech person that AVL has given me to contact anytime I need help, Melody, and she's wonderful. I think what bothers me the most is that I'm now hearing the same types of stories from folks that I'm experiencing - it shouldn't take months to get a loom to work because of tech/manufacturing issues. I'm trying to think positive though because all those that went through the same thing now love their looms. It's just all so unnecessary. And I'm not badmouthing AVL, far from it, just stating facts along the way.Cindie https://www.blogger.com/profile/00417973211775970549noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5196798951942000203.post-88355986005275945252012-01-05T20:49:14.605-08:002012-01-05T20:49:14.605-08:00It sounds to me that its time to call in some help...It sounds to me that its time to call in some help... and may I recommend Jane Stafford on Salt Spring Island?<br />Or you may have a Louet dealer closer by.<br /><br />Weaving should be fun!<br /><br />SusanSusan https://www.blogger.com/profile/09707139508896058818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5196798951942000203.post-81294634251654678242012-01-05T20:31:18.914-08:002012-01-05T20:31:18.914-08:00Oh gosh Cindie, I hope so too.
