[lace] Re; Lace pillow stand
Hi Arachnids, The stand I use was made by Brian Goodwin. http://www.briangoodwin.co.uk/ He also makes other lace accessories as well as bits for dollsâ houses. It is completely height and angle adjustable and one can get different sizes tops to go on the same stand. The top comes off and flat packs while the legs unscrew to leave the central column as the largest item. I made a bag for it which is about 15 cms round with two pockets for bits. This can hang on a strap from the shoulder. My pillow bag and folding chair (canvas and aluminium) go in one hand my walking stick in the other. As I cannot carry much weight âbad back- everything has to be light weight. I also have a Spanish stand which is completely height adjustable and has a tilt-able and adjustable for pillow size top. This can be replaced by a top for a bolster type pillow which also flat-packs. I cannot remember the name of the firm I bought it from, but they were at the Christmas Lace Fair in Birmingham in either 2004 and/or 2005. A useful, sturdy pillow stand, but not as well finished as Brian Goodwinâs and really too heavy to cart around. No affiliation to either firm, just a happy customer. Happy lace making, Joepie. - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here. For help, write to arachne.modera...@gmail.com.

When someone actually finds a carpenter willing to try, I could disassemble mine and measure the pieces...

UPS is intolerable, Fed Ex the better alternative.
