Here, as promised is all the information about making your own pin loom.
http://www.rogersstark.com/wool/weave/weave.htm
This site has all the instructions for making several sizes of loom and the jig for working out where to nail the pins. I actually reduced the size even smaller for mine, and as long as you keep the pin arrangment the same as the diagram on all 4 corners of the loom, it works.
I also find that it's OK to just nail into a a block of wood to make a small loom. You can simply take a piece of wood and nails! I used a piece of old cork flooring and drilled a hole in the centre - the hole also not really needed.
The website above also has instructions on how to weave on your loom and ideas on what to make with the cloth.
Enjoy!
