Student's Loom
A Student's Loom is a building used for weaving textiles, such as linen and canvas. Working a loom uses an Endurance timer.
Student's Looms are strung with twine, some of which (randomly between 1 and 60) will break each time the loom is used. Broken twine will need to be replaced until the Student's Loom can be used again. For this reason the Student's Loom has been roundly cursed by Egyptians throughout history.
It is made obsolete by the Hand Loom, which works identically but is strung with copper wire which never needs replacing.
