Create elegant cords, trims and finishes for garments, interior accents
and jewelry using this stand. The Fireside Maru Dai is designed to be
a fine piece of furniture and a tool to facilitate your braiding. A smooth
round top, 10" in diameter, is sculpted around the central hole and is
suitable for up to 64 stands. The outside edge is beveled to reduce wear
on filament silk and fine cottons. To help you keep your bearings, it
has a brass inlay point to indicate north. .
Bentwood basket protects your work
The bentwood basket fits over the top, locking each strand in place for
transport and protection. The adjustable tray pivots in any direction or height to
hold important accessories such as scissors or coffee cup. Better yet, use
it for holding the bentwood basket to catch your finished cord, keeping
it clean and untangled. By raising the tray, you can rest the weights
when you're not braiding.
Crescent base
The tripod base provides great stability, and is out of your way for sitting
or standing at your work. When sitting, you can rest your feet on the
base for added stability. The crescent shape also adapts to different
floor surfaces.
Versatile table
If you need an accessory stand for some other project, just invert the
basket over the top and you have a small table with a lower tray.
Portable design
The entire Maru Dai disassembles easily. From the ends of the post extend
threaded screws that thread into the top and base with a few turns. Different
length posts are available so you can work sitting, standing, on a table
top or
on your lap.
