REPURPOSE FIRST GENERATION APPLETV INTO A HEADPHONE STAND

I don't know about you guys, but I have a few first generation AppleTv's lying around. I've used one in the past to make a shelf above my desk. Mainly to keep things like a mouse and SD cards off my desk. Today I decided to repurpose yet another one into a headphone stand.  I've done a DIY headphone stand in the past and was not crazy about the final verdict of the base I made so I will be reusing the Ikea parts of that and this AppleTv as the base.

I got two 6 inch sections of weathered, removed teak handrail and I bought some miniature wrought iron shelf brackets.


 
Listening station view, I face a sliding glass door.

I've had some free time this weekend and took a little time out for headphone stands. A couple of new designs and improving a couple of my older ones. 
 
1) Waiting for a few meters of LED rope-lights to come in so I can finish this stand. As you can see the plexiglass has been fitted, so only the lighting is left: 
 
 




 

 
 
2) Paying homage to the headphone with a headphone shaped headphone stand (may end up changing the cable wrap a bit): 
 





 
3) Just added a cable wrap to the simplest of my designs: 
 



 
4) My 2nd headphone stand, but now with more precise tools the cuts are better and more accurate:

Those are some absolutely well done and gorgeous stands. Do you by chance sell any..? :O
