Okay, Houston, we've had a problem here

Maybe not as big a problem as Apollo 13 had but... big enough to warrant its own post.
A piece of the swinging beater on my Leclerc Voyageur broke while I was dressing the loom! So off the loom it went! (With the help of a small army). And after some serious "Space to Earth communication" (A.K.A. emails to my mentor) the piece is smothered in wood glue, clamped, and drying on my desk. So, until I finish patching it up there will be no weaving going on here! I will probably be spinning until it is fixed, so I will write about that.
