[Nfb-krafters-korner] Question about boye looms

[Blindhands at aol.com]

I had a peg come loose on one of my Cindy Wood craft looms.  I  contacted 
her and she mailed me some pegs.  I used my Aleene Tacky glue in  a jar, that 
is thicker glue then their bottle glue and glued it in and it has  been 
fine for the last 6 months.
 
I actually used Aleen Tacky glue in a jar to glue a wood board in my  
cabinet door.  It kept popping out so the edge of the cabinet door would  come 
off every time I opened that cabinet.   Since it was the door on  the corner 
that had the lazy Susan storage I used it a lot.  The glue is  still holding 
it in place very nicely and it has to be at least 3 or 4 years  since I 
glued it.  I got tired of asking my dh to fix it.

Hi  Valerie, yes the pegs can be loose and <sigh>no you don't want them  
coming out when your in the middle of a project, trust me on that one,  lol
Of the 4 basic round ones, I have not come across any reason for them  to 
be removable, a couple of things you can do is to take a piece of paper  
towel, lay it across the peg hole, replace the peg, making sure the groove is  
facing the correct way, and apply firm pressure to ensure the peg is as far  
into the hole as possible. At this point I would turn the loom over so that 
it  is resting on the peg tips on a solid surface and give it a firm smack.
Or  you could glue it in with something like super glue or a silicone  glue.
