I was given a standing tapestry loom, mostly disassembled, for free via a listing for items in our local area. The person who had it wasn't able to tell me much about it, but I do know that it's from the UK. I replaced the rusted nuts, bolts and threaded rods, and I'm now ready to try to figure out how it should go together and get weaving. Anyone here have any ideas about what it is or how it should be set up? I spent some hours googling around and reading posts in here and elsewhere on weaving sites, but no dice. And there's no identifying markings on it anywhere.

If you look at the pictures you can see that the top crosspiece of the standing frame had yarns crossing it. The bottom piece has fewer signs of that, on the back side (like maybe in 4 spots), not visible in the picture. The top piece also has fine nails in the top side, spaced out every inch or so.

The two outer crosspieces of the section on the floor with rods and rope, it seems those also had yarn wrapped around or passing over them. I am guessing that the rods were used for adjusting the warp tension somehow. That's the only part which I know how it was put together, because it was assembled when I got it; I just replaced all the old metal bits with clean new ones.

I am not sure about the purpose of the two rods, neither shows signs of wear from yarn or anything else.

Oh and also, there's a set of lower mounting holes on the two side pieces of the standing frame, which would support the triangular-ish pieces with the rods being mounted there instead of where it is now.

Note that I have no idea if I have those triangular mounts are on upside down or not, etc. Sorry to be so clueless! Anyways, thanks in advance for any help any of you can provide, and I hope you are all having a great holiday season.
