Product Information

Full details

The Elbesee Helping Hand HH12 is for stitchers who use hand frames with floorstanding clamp-style stands. Its key benefit is securely holding hand frames without pinching the fabric, allowing continuous scrolling of your work. A potential caveat is its specific compatibility with Posilock floorstanding tapestry frame stands. This versatile attachment firmly grips hand frames, enabling seamless movement and access to your stitching area.

FAQs

What type of floor stand does the Elbesee Helping Hand HH12 work with?

It is designed to work with the Posilock floorstanding tapestry frame stand.

Will this holder clamp my fabric?

No, the Elbesee Helping Hand is specifically designed to grip the hand frame without clamping or damaging your fabric or material.

Can I use this with any hand frame?

It is a universal hand frame holder, meaning it is designed to accommodate most standard hand frames. Its attachment is to the floor stand.

What is the main advantage of using this product?

The main advantage is allowing your work to scroll while it remains securely clamped to your floor stand, providing continuous access and ease of use.

Is this a standalone product?

No, the Elbesee Helping Hand HH12 is an attachment designed to work in conjunction with a Posilock floorstanding tapestry frame stand.

Where is this product made?

The Elbesee Helping Hand HH12 is made in Great Britain.

How do I clean the Helping Hand?

Wipe it clean with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.

Troubleshooting

Frame feels loose in the holder

Ensure the hand frame is fully seated within the Helping Hand. Check that the Helping Hand itself is securely clamped to the floor stand.

Helping Hand won't attach to floor stand

Verify that you are using a compatible Posilock floorstanding tapestry frame stand. Check that the clamp on the Helping Hand is open and positioned correctly before attempting to attach it.

Fabric is being pinched or damaged

The Helping Hand is designed *not* to clamp the fabric. Ensure the frame itself is properly loaded onto the Helping Hand, and the Helping Hand is clamped to the floor stand. The fabric should be held by the hand frame's internal mechanism.

Difficulty scrolling the work

Ensure the Helping Hand is not overtightened onto the floor stand, allowing for smooth rotation. Also, check that the hand frame itself is not binding; sometimes the fabric tension within the hand frame can cause resistance.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Prevents fabric damage by not clamping the material directly.
  • Allows for easy scrolling of your project.
  • Provides a secure and stable hold for hand frames.
  • Designed for seamless integration with specific floor stands.
  • Durable construction, made in Great Britain.

Cons

  • Primarily designed for Posilock floorstanding tapestry frame stands, limiting universal floor stand compatibility.
  • May require a separate Posilock floorstand to function.
  • It is an accessory, not a standalone product.
  • The rotating mechanism relies on the hand frame's ability to scroll.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Elbesee Helping Hand HH12 is designed to attach to a clamp-style floor stand, specifically the Posilock floorstanding tapestry frame stand. Ensure your floor stand is stable and properly assembled. Attach the Helping Hand to the designated clamp area on your floor stand. Then, securely place your hand frame into the holder, ensuring it is firmly seated but not damaging your fabric.

Compatibility: This product is designed to work with the Posilock floorstanding tapestry frame stand. It is intended for use with hand frames (as opposed to scroll frames or other types of embroidery frames that attach directly to floor stands).

Care: To care for your Elbesee Helping Hand, wipe it clean with a slightly damp cloth as needed. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. Ensure the clamping mechanisms remain free of debris to maintain optimal function. Store in a dry place when not in use.
