New to tufting- trying to get the basics. any tips?
Hey there! as the title states, I’m new to the tufting community. I’ve had this gun for nearly 3/ half years now, I asked for a frame/gun kit but my grandma only got the gun— any way, I finally got to making my own frame after no one bought me one for the following Christmasses😭😭 it’s about 36x36 which I think is a good starting point for me since I’m new. I plan to buy a projector and a shaver, but is there any thing else I need? Does the gun only work with a certain weight of yarn? I know I see people use multiple strands.
Another question I had was about thinner lines. How do people go about them? I want to use thinner yarn but that goes with my first question, since I don’t know how this works exactly.
My last question, I keep seeing the clawlab gun everywhere. For experienced users or someone who’s worked with both, which do you prefer?
Thanks! If anyone has any advice to leave in the comments anything helps!!
