Marudai
 Braiding table is made entirely of Hard Maple (Acer saccharum),
  the ideal choice for strength, durability and ultra smooth surfaces.

 Table is made with three legs with only one leg facing the braider. This provides easier access to the braid weight, simplifies assembly and allows the base to be used as a footrest.
 Two piece legs are not just dowels, they are fully turned to a pleasing shape.

 Penetrating, hard oil finish applied to all parts. Finish will not stain threads.
 All of the connecting hardware is made of steel and brass for strength and durability.

 Assembly and disassembly is straight forward and requires only a coin or simple screwdriver.
 Entire table can be stored flat in a 14" x 14" x 4" (350mm x 350mm x 100mm) box or bag.
 Three screws and three washers are the only loose hardware. They can be securely stored
   by fitting them into the leg ends.

  The shape of the well (Hekomi) and central hole (Kagami no ana) have been calculated for best braiding performance.
  Many thanks to Sarah Symons who did the mathematical calculations and testing for the Hekomi / Kagami no ana design.
