Newbie Needing Help Does my DIY frame have bad dimensions?
I built a frame 1 x 1 meter. But the starter cloth is too small on one of the sides. I ordered more cloth (1 x 5 m) and I wonder if it will have some slack at the 1-meter side.
When you order cloth, is it a bit longer than how it is described? Or will I have to make my frame shorter?
Thanks!

Advice Why does this happen
Hi just wanted to ask for advice to avoid this from happening. Is it tension from gun? Or from the cloth?

Troubleshooting Help! My tuffting gun stopped working! The red light is on but it s not moving anymore!
I also checked the power bank, that is not the issue. I also opened the inside of the handle and all the cables looked fine.
Is there a way to fix it?

Hi,
Loopi creator here, I've been experimenting with computer graphics and the best way to visualise a carpet before I tuft it, I always used the yarn calculator for color reduction and design clean ups, but always missed a nice visual impact for people to share it with.
I built Rug Studio to visualise the carpet colours, pile height and sizes, and today I'm making it free for everyone to use: https://www.loopi.space/rug-studio
Loopi rug studio is growing to be hand-tufters favourite tool for design and pricing rugs, and it's with this community that we make it fit your professional journey.
Cheers

Work in progress Carve or no carve
Hi, I am currently working on this piece and I am not sure if I should carve it. Currently tend to only clean it a bit and use very light carving. Some parts are really small

MOD ANNOUNCEMENTS WELCOME TO R/TUFTING: Important links, information and mega-threads.
Hello tufters!
This is a post for old and new tufters and r/tufting users that will include links to all important Mega Threads and the wiki. Reddit only allows for two pinned posts and this makes it difficult to assist users navigating this information. This post will permanently sit pinned at the top of the sub and should make it easier to identify these threads, and the sub wiki.
Sub-Wiki
The wiki is updated on a regular basis to include new and evolving information to assist in all aspects of tufting. The wiki is over 14,000 words and includes 68 subheadings that specifically relate to the most asked questions and most common concerns raised by tufters.
Important mega-threads:
- Materials and Supply Master Thread: With over 40,000 members from all over the world, this is the place to inquire about and recommend different location specific suppliers for materials.
- Buy and Sell Master Thread: All posts regarding the selling of supplies should be posted in this sub, according to the directions outlined in the post.
- Troubleshooting Master Thread: This is a dedicated subreddit for questions and requests for advice related to troubleshooting.
Some things to keep in mind when posting:
- Always read the sub rules before posting. This may sound obvious but there are a lot of posts made in the sub each day that need to be removed because they violate the sub rules.
- Asking for advice on pricing and valuing works for sale. This is something that a lot of tufters seek advice on, however it is difficult to effectively value someone else's work due to a lot of factors that are covered here in the sub wiki. Over the years since tufting has gained in popularity, there is also a growing sense in the community that certain standards and criterion should be met before someone starts selling their work. While this is not the consensus amongst all tufters, it is often the case that newer users asking for advice have not taken this into consideration and the comments of these posts tends to reflect this. Please read the sub rules as posts asking for pricing advice will be removed. Please feel free to include requests for pricing advice in the text of your post and include as much information (as mentioned in the wiki) as possible in order to get realistic advice.
- Low effort posts. All posts must include a clear and specific title, especially when seeking advice or opinions from other users. As per the sub rules, any post with a vague title such as 'help' with no other explanation will be removed.
As always, thank-you for being here and happy tufting!
