Mahl stick
On another thread somewhere, it was suggested to use a cane with a curved handle as a mahl stick. So I rummaged through the garage till I came up with an assortment of canes, crutches, and umbrellas. I actually found the perfect one and after cleaning the cobwebs and dead bugs off, plus giving it a new coat of polish, I have a mahl stick!
I just hook the handle over the canvas and brace away. Now if I can only get used to it.
