Review on 🪡 Adjustable Cross Stitch Hoop Stand for Quilting, Easy Operation Embroidery Stand Holder - Lifesaver Embroidery Supplies (New and Improved Version) by Kim Sanchez

Your biggest problem is finding the right distance to spread your arms to fit your tire. This requires a large tire - at the moment I have a 14 inch tire set up and I have about an extra inch so this should give you an idea of how much max you need. Once you've found the perfect spot, make sure you mark it on the stand somehow so you know where to put your hands the next time you swap hoops. Note: There are pictures in the guide, but they are minimal.Short Screws - This secures the arms to the base. LONG screws are used to increase the pressure on the back of the clamps. I think they should have added some sort of metal plate to the clamp where the screws meet the bare wood as wood wears out over time. to change it for yourself somehow. If you use a smaller hoop, you should be able to turn your work without moving the stand. If the reason you wanted to achieve this was to take a larger tire to flip the larger tire. However, this is the ideal height for desk work, so just understand that you have to flip the work to see/reach the back. It is very stable and secure and not as wobbly as it looks on the product image once set up. My guess is that the temples were not fully secured in the product image. The wood is mostly unfinished except for the top of the base, but it's well sanded and smooth - a plus if you want to paint/fade it like one of the reviewers here did. Here are the issues I'm having with mine that would give 3.5 stars if I could deduct half a star: The base I received is slightly warped so it wobbles a bit even on a flat table. Support one of the corners with a rag to prevent wobbling. I expected a desktop product to be able to stand upright on a flat surface. There was also rust on some of the screws. This did not affect their usability. These problems simply indicate a lack of quality control and/or the product has been stored in a humid place for a long time, causing the screws to rust. Maybe that's why the base is slightly deformed, who knows. That doesn't stop me from using this base, but I just wanted you to know about it. I can try to find a more reliable way to fix the wobble, maybe with a felt pad in one of the corners.
