Rug Hooking Floor Stand...at last

So here's the rug hooking floor stand my dad made for me.   I love it....it raises, it lowers, it tilts, it twirls it does everything but finish the rug I'm working on. 



So what am I working on now......

    I love your floor stand. If my Dad was still here, I could probably ask him to make me one. He was a woodworker by trade and could make pretty much anything. He was pretty good at figuring out to make stuff work. But, I guess I'll just have to stay with the lap stand that I have. It works, but probably not as well as your floor stand. Your Dad should be proud of the stand! I also love the rug you're working on.

    Thanks.
