Nice work how did you cut the acrylic a router

Cheers mate all cutting is done with a jig saw and a hobby saw.  Weldon persplex glue to stick everthing together and edges are polished by flame or 800 wet and dry and then some cutting compound for the shine.  Angled edges are done with a small edger/router/

Not quite a headphone stand, but still something I'm proud of and one of my favorite projects. I have long wanted an iPad stand that tilts, rotates and has an attachable keyboard stand. After months of experimenting I came up with this:

That is beautiful nice work can the tablet come out.

 
No, once in, trapped forever more :wink:
 
I've been hammered with requests for iPads that "lock" in place, specifically for business use. So, this way locks and is removed by two screws. It would be easy enough to make this stand open, with two walls, rather than four. Something like this:

Ohh just discovered that thread !
 
Any ideas on the design for Brainwavz hm5 stand ?
I have all the tools and electric tools needed + I was working as a carpenter for 2 years (like 8 years ago) and carpentry was my hobby for some time, So I can just do what I want.
 
What about Y shaped stand with hook for wire or something ?
 
edit: hmmmm to think about it... 
I have unfinished hand model... but it requires hellish amounts of work

I built this headphone stand. I should say I designed it. My 3d printer printed it. Its specifically designed for my monoprice headphones. Its serving me well. There is a transverse hole that holds two separate coiled cables. 3.5mm jacks into it. Its also open source for those of you who may want to make your own. Download it here -> https://www.youmagine.com/designs/headphone-stand
 
Its free, as in air free. No strings attached. No branding etc.

Happy listening.

Thats pretty cool !
 
My project is kinda starting too loook like a thing. Far from finished and very inspired by last few pages :wink: really like ericfarrell85 work. I don't have all tools and quality wood tho.
 
I have rather limited tools, knowledge and time... so did this today in 3 hours. The hole in the front was to be used for cable. but thats now not such a good idea :p
 
And... isn't it too big ?

Nice how long did it take to print? It's crazy who would have ever thought you could print 3D objects at home, I remember when CD's first came out and it really wasn't that long ago. It still amazes me how technology evolves so fast.

It took about 3 or 4 hours to print. 20min to design. Much faster than shipping. No sanding or clean up necessary either. Total cost in electric and plastic around $3 bux..... I wanted a headphone stand for a long time. I finally built one. Planning on doing a 3d printed speaker at some point.

I was checking out the KLUTZ DESIGN CanCans on Massdrop earlier I really like the shape but seriously how they have the neck to charge  $219.99 for some laminated together softwood? With a rather mediocre stain job is beyond me.  Crazy what a bit of clever branding can do.

I saw this also in MassDrop it's a rip off I would rather make one for the price. I run a CNC Electric CO2 Laser at work I am drew up a stainless steel headphone stand, hopefully the programmer can do some programming for me with out the bosses knowing. I am friends with the night shift boss so I will have him cut me out a crap load of them and send them through are deburring machines. Now I just have to find an Electroplating Company or have them chrome dipped hopefully I can find a cheap one.

What gets me is that the stand's MSRP is $280, but they couldn't be bothered to laser or engrave their logo into the base. Instead, it's a fracking sticker.
