Hello, I am wondering if this lap stand will work for rug hooking? Thank you.

I think it probably will. Just keep your fabric a bit looser so the can manipulate it a bit easier. The only thing I can see as a hindrance would be rolling the parts you already have your yarn in. Have fun and enjoy. Remember, you can get very large frame pieces by this company. That may also help a great deal. I hope this was helpful.

I am considering purchasing this - SurfShelf Treadmill Desk: Laptop and iPad Holder - for that purpose but not sure if it'll work or not. Seems like an area someone should invest in, heh.

Should work just fine. The biggest effort will involve lifting the desk to place the pads. You would be wise to have some assistance. Also consider leaving the pads in place for the next move unless your desk slides too easily on the rug causing instability.

If you hang it horizontally like the picture shows, yes it will work great as a towel rack.

Absolutely, I have 2 runner rugs that I taped down over carpet (very long rugs), very easy to do as is double sided and easy to work with. I have had it down now for over 2 months and as not slipped at all. It is in high traffic area. I love this stuff. I even used it to cover up gap in door for insulation.

I doubt it will work well for objects which may move when in use. Tables probably ok if use the larger size.

In general the diagonal measure of the laptop should not matter. My laptop is probably 17 inches or so diagonally and it works fine with this stand. What matters most is if the thickness of the laptop or shape of the case causes instability with the two relatively small "feet" that hold the laptop in place. This is more of concern if you want the laptop at a steep angle because the "feet" flip out about an inch so if your laptop does not have a flat case it could be less stable when at the steeper angles. I simply cut a straw into two small pieces which I put over the feet to make them longer and therefore more stable when I need maximum height for the screen.

For the application I use it for it does not tip over. I use it on tile and hardwood and the three leg system works well. I think it would be OK on a low pile throw rugs or carpet as well.

The "hooks" are probably too large for keys - they are about half an inch in diameter (you'd need very large key rings to make this work). We use the rack to hold and dry bathroom towels; it works PERFECTLY for that.

If your product has space to accommodate a small hook, it will work. Hooks come in two sizes - small and large. The one pictured here is small.

I don't have a fancy rug like that. I do have a shag rug and it works good on that. It lifts it up and makes it look better.

It works great. I have carpet and porcelain tile and area rugs. I have some fringe (short) on two rugs and it's fine with those, it doesn't get caught. It makes the transition to all heights without a problem. The rugs that slide around (without rubber bottom) it tends to push them out of the way.

I have only used it for towels and jewelry, so I can't give an informed answer. It's aluminum, so my guess is that it wouldn't support anything heavy, like metal tools. This rack is designed for organization and visibility of smaller items. For heavy things, better to use a pegboard and hook system.

No this isn't really the accessory for lap use. It's more for desktop use. It docks the tablet upright so it sits like a screen on your desk, but it probably wouldn't be good at all for using your tablet in your lap while docked with this accessory.

It will work for all kinds of things :) I have wallets, clutches and small purses in mine and my son uses his for his shoes and toys! It's really a great product. BUT I did find one thing i did not like about it. The over the door hangers were too thick to put on my door so i just put a couple small nails at the top of my door and hung it from the nails. It's a very inexpensive fix and wont hurt your door any either.

if your laptop has a squared off corner in the front on the bottom, then it may be fine. If it is rounded (like an I pad or a note book) then it may be an issue. I added a kleat (a straight piece of quarter round wood) to mine just because I am handy that way. But I would suggest that you just purchase a piece of rubberized drawer liner that can be found at Wal-Mart, Shopko, Target, Jo-Ann fabrics, Or Michaels arts/crafts, Hobby Lobby and/or Ace Hardware. That should then accommodate any portable device on your new table,...and you don't have to be a carpenter like me. Hope this helps. P.S. this was the only table we found that is easy to put together and to operate. Especially if you only have use of one hand like my Dad does.

There are no edges on the sides so it should work fine, although I'm not familiar with your laptop. It has a lip at the bottom so that the laptop doesn't slide off, and you can adjust the rubber 'feet' to change the angle of the platform.
