Review on ๐Ÿงต Frank A. Edmunds Stitcher's Wonder! Adjustable Craft Stand: Enhance Your Craftwork with the Split Rail Scroll Frame, 6115 by Crystal Spicer

Revainrating 4 out of 5

DOES NOT rotate 360 โ€‹โ€‹degrees

This frame needs to be rotated 360 degrees. This is important to make it easier to tie threads on the wrong side of the work. But it can't even rotate vertically, let alone 360 degrees, because the scroll bars are wider than the U-shaped prop. The side rails are also a bit long so they can't handle the flex of the U-shaped brace. I can get around this a bit by tilting the bottom of the stand, but that makes it too low and I'm crouching in my work. Another solution is to sacrifice some width and make the scrollbars shorter to fit everything in the U-shaped support. But I'd also need to put some sort of spacer between the frame's side rails and the U-pillar where they attach to the sides. It looks like the company figured this out and provided a frame that fits inside the bar, or lengthened the bar to fit around the frame. If they claim it spins 360 degrees, it must be engineered to actually do so.

Pros
  • Elegant design
Cons
  • Periodicity
