I have two AVL PDL's. I have broken cables on both looms. Is that common with these looms? On my 48" I have broken all 3 dobby cables at least once. On my 60" I can see that one cable has already been spliced and I broke on of the treadle cables. They are very expensive, but I have been replacing them myself with vinal coated airplane cable from Home Depot. So frustrating. I am hoping that now that all the cables are new, I'll be good to go for a while. Luckily my hubby is getting to be excellent at adjusting the cable lengths to get everything working right.
