Was there any drawback to the color red when using this form? Distracting, hard to find pins?

Hi I didn't find it so because I use glass headed colorful pins. But I also had put white material around the top because I have a Dcup, so either color I could see colored pins. Best wishes

I am thinking of doing the same thing. I assume you did this for easy assemble/disassembly which is my problem with limited space? Did it work with 7/32" pins and would you recommend it?

Print quality. More pins = finer density/better quality. It is a reference to the print head in the device.

David, mine is red and I like it just fine.Green wasn't available at the time.I think green would be nice as well but probably a matter of personal preference.Color shouldn't make a difference when marking a target......

Mine was grey. It didn't last long though. Be nice if it had reinforcing where the pin goes through.

I, too, covered mine in a tight stretchy knit top and I pin into the shirt. As to the lightness of the form that is what I like about it; it moves easily anywhere in the room. I guess I just am used to it but when I put something on it I am careful not to tip it. I use the form for fit issues with clothing and I use it to hold long items I need to hem like a formal gown; I just take it to its tallest height. When I do this I do put the form in a wide container (like a flower pot) and stuff fabric around it so it is not so tippy while I feed the fabric into my machine. I really like this form. It is the best one I found at such a reasonable price.

I haven't seen any problems yet. I think I will be able to use these hundreds of time. I use the non- rusting T-pins. This has been working out fantastically.

Use a file. Took me about 10 minutes. I used a thin circle file and removed the small tab on the end of the pin and it should come right out.

I ordered it in red. There must be a place with a color choice or perhaps one of the many sellers has that option. I love the red.I see someone mentioned rust being a problem. I haven't seen that.

The board I bought was a single red one. I think the pic just depicts that there are different ones you can order.

Yeah, some colors I"ve do that more than others. The orange, black and white are fine; as are the jelly and the clear. The red and purple are questionable. And the hook is worthless... I broke both of mine, but I actually do use the bottom half of a broken one to get into those hard to reach places between bands.

When I was researching before purchase, I remember one commenter mentioning that this particular form was better for display, rather than sewing, pinning, etc. That may be the case for the professional seamstress. I've pinned and done light repair on some vintage items and have no complaints. It is attractive and easy to work with. Good luck!

I bought this for the purpose of pinning cities I've been to and I've had no trouble doing so. I also purchased small pins for city pinning too. Hope this helps!

Amazon has them if you do a search for "hot roller pins".... I tried to send you the link but Amazon said that the content was objectionable????

Actually, I had the same question. The ones I ordered all came in the solid red, which I preferred. The white and red image may just be an unupdated visual for the same product. Take care!

As a general rule, when sellers offer random pins, they will not look for or include specific pins. Pins are priced low because of the lack of selection.
