Skadis rotating display stand

I designed this display stand for my daughter to use when she attends craft fairs.

It uses four Ikea Skadis 36cm x 56cm peg boards with a printed frame to mount these together onto a stand.

For the stand I used a bike repair stand with the top arm removed, though this can be adapted to be used with other suitable stands, i.e. speaker stand or even just a parasol base and a pole, whatever you have access to.  I have included the original fusion model so that you can adapt the relevant parts to suit different diameter stands.  If you are unable to make the amendments yourself, send me a message and I will try to help.

For hooks to suit the skadis boards, please check out my hook model here.  

Assembly instructions

Assemble the top arm components, these will take all the weight of the skadis boards.

M4 threaded inserts are required as shown here.

Now assemble the bottom arms into two parts like this, again with M4 threaded inserts.

Us M5 threaded inserts in the bottom collar.

If the stand you are using has an open ended tube, you should install the bung.  This serves two purposes.  First it will stopp the tube cutting intot he print as it rotates and damaging it over time.  Secondly, it is slightly domed so have a very small contact area with the top frame, allowing it to spin freely without the need for bearings. 

Secure the bottom collar around the tube.

Put on the bottom arms.

Sit the top arm assembly on top of the stand/tube.

Then fixe the skadis panels using their standard fixing screws.

Once all four panels are on, you can then add any hooks for your items and add a pricing sign into the clip at the top.
