Is the loom actually shaped like an S? Is the S on its side? Or is it
standing up, so the loom is twice as tall as usual?

Hi Becky, we have 2 S shaped looms. Terry bought hers from either Jo Anns or
Michaels, and I bought mine from someone who bought it from Cindy Wood
Crafts.
We'll have to look at the bottoms of each one to see if we can see these
holes that you are talking about.
Sometimes it is difficult for Terry to get through the aisles with her
walker. we have mentioned this as being dangerous to the store clerks, and
they agreed with us.
They are lucky that the fire marshall doesn't pull a surprise inspection on
them.

I finally got to touch an S loom at Joanne's Fabricks. Fascinating device.
It has a detail I really like, holes on the bottom. My guess these are for
making a dial type frame to set it on when the piece is to long to hold on
a table or your lap. The one I, ahem, took out of the box looked like it was
for four ply yarn. Ok, I didn't take it out of the box, but I sure need a
ride from this character. I take the blame. She is as nutty or more then I
am. They had six of these S looms on the bottom shelf for thirty five
dollars, and then my friend said she saw a sell price of twenty nine
dollars. The loom made a six foot wide afghan. I sure have ideas to improve
the design of this loom.
I was in a tiny transport chair and she had problems wheeling me smoothly
around the twists and turns of the isle. The store was not very compliant
with the ADA coding out there.
