> 3 dayIsnt it amazing how people shop for the absolute cheapest version of whatever they need and then complain that real human beings didnt spend hundreds of hours painstakingly crafting each individual one? Youve been searching for a cheap thread holder and now youve found it. Its exactly as you should now imagine it to be. It works. Its made of wood. Its held firmly together and it holds spools of thread. It even hangs on the wall! I refer to it as singular because even though it ships as two separate racks, its very easy to add a couple of picture-hanging hooks to the bottom-rear of the feet of one of them to link them together into one big rack. Whats that? You dont know how to nail a hook into a piece of wood? The manufacturer should have included it already done? Dont we all sew? Arent we makers? What happened to that maker spirit? Yes, this piece is not completely finished by most peoples standards. You could use it as is, but theres a good chance youll want to finish the piece. That will involve sanding, staining and/or sealing. I decided to take the sanding & sealing route, mostly because I was out of wood stain. I sanded the entirety of both racks with a 150 grit sandpaper. You may need to resort to 100 grit if you have some significant rough patches. There should be no need to use a finer (higher) grit sandpaper. Given all the tight spaces, I see no other way to do this than manually. The only other option is to find a way to unseat all those pegs without breaking them. I couldnt think of a way. Once both pieces were fully sanded, I applied a single coat of oil-based polyurethane with a 1 paintbrush. If you arent familiar with PU or working with hazardous inhalants in general, you should probably stick with just a stain. PU is powerful stuff and takes a long time to dry, so a well-ventilated workspace is essential. It wouldnt be crazy to wear a respirator or gas mask while applying this stuff! And you cant just leave it outside because the wind will blow dirt and grass all over it. So you have to be creative about how to devise a well-ventilated, yet protected, space to apply the PU and allow it to dry. If you happen to have a sunroom in your house, youre all set. Also, it can be reasonably argued that a PU coating on something like this is overkill. At this point, I can mount this rack in a tree in my backyard and itll be fine for years. But my point is: Make it your own. The bones are solid, just finish it the way you like. And if that isnt good enough for you, then there is another listing that is fully complete at 3x the price. Have at it.

Greater than one weekThis comes in handy and allows you to prep the hair before your clients get to you. I received mines with one of the hocks that you use to attach it to a wall missing with not even a screw hole, and one of the wooden sprongs broken.

> 3 dayThe legs that hold up the stand are uneven for both stands. One leg is about 1 cm shorter than the other so the stands rock. But the product itself is well made.

Greater than one weekI bought this to hold napkin rings, rather than thread, and its working great for that. It looks rather delicate, so I was concerned about its sturdiness, but its much stronger and more stable than it looks.
