Workstation
Stable surface: An ideal workstation is a flat, stable surface measuring approximately 400-500mm square.
Alternative: If a dedicated workstation is unavailable, a thick board (like MDF) measuring at least 500x500mm can be used as a substitute.
Securing: For initial weaving, it's crucial to have a way to secure one side of the workpiece to prevent shifting.
Securing Materials
Double-sided tape: Use to secure one or both sides of the workpiece. Reusable, wide double-sided tape is recommended.
PP band: Cut PP bands narrower than 10mm into 90-120mm lengths to secure woven sections. Utilize leftover PP bands.
Hair ties: Use to secure PP bands. Tangle-free hair ties are convenient. A 1.3mm diameter hair tie can secure three layers of 15mm wide PP bands.
Clips: Helpful for securing weaving. Use familiar clips that won't damage the material.
Weights: The image shows a stainless steel curved scale, but please prepare a weight that is easy for you to use.
Creating a Comfortable Workspace
Workstation height: Adjust the workstation height to avoid strain during extended work sessions.
Lighting: Work in a well-lit area.
Storage: Keep necessary tools organized and within easy reach.
Posture: Maintain good posture and take frequent breaks.
