Laser cut loom

As part of learning thought I’d make this loom, so we’d get something readily usable (well, after we/kids learn how to do that)
Quite sure I got the link here (sorry - can’t remember whom)
Mini loom

I didn’t really learn much - the svg file printed great right off.

I couldn’t get the EPS files to work correctly though. Would greatly appreciate the help on that. Posting this link here so it is useful for loom makers, but if response below belongs elsewhere, please move, thanks!
The EPS file also has a longer base to it would be 18x8 rather than 8x8
(should cross reference - these threads that helped me try to convert the bitmap to vector:

I do have photoshop and so when I selected the lines (had to make a blank white layer below to see the lines) and transferred to inkscape it gave me some lines but the GFUI saw it as bitmap. So then I tried to trace bitmap but that just gave me very thick lines/paths and other stuff inside (perhaps I’m not fiddling with the settings right? I tried a lot)

Should I just be using Illustrator to open the EPS files? (if that is easier for at least initial conversion to svg, I could do that asking someone and then work on the svg on inkscape as I need)

TIA!
