Troubleshooting
Fabric is not staying taut
Ensure the metal screw is tightened securely. If the fabric continues to slip, try placing a thin layer of non-slip material (like shelf liner) between the fabric and the inner ring, or consider a slightly smaller fabric piece.
Difficulty separating the rings
Gently twist the rings while pulling them apart. If they are very tight, you can try running a thin, flat object like a butter knife around the inside edge of the outer ring to loosen the grip.
Wood shows signs of wear or splintering
Lightly sand any rough spots with fine-grit sandpaper. For minor discoloration, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by immediate drying. Avoid harsh chemicals.
