Hamanaka Kumihino Braid Making Disk

I came across these super little braiding disks in Australia a couple of years ago.

Made from supple, compressed polystyrene, this simple disk is an excellent aid for braid making. And, you can use them anywhere – even on airplanes!

Slots on the disk hold the threads firmly, so there's no need for weights.
