I'm working on it XD
 
designed a simple one.
But i made the Schiit stack from scratch, that was fun :)
Using Sketchup
 
I went and got some walnut wood today. Gonna make it tomorrow. I might put some leather on the top bar to make it softer on the headphone head bands


Wood finish is drying!

Not my creation but bought it from another member.  Clever of him - had some aluminum parts laying around and put this together.  Oh, and I have it for sale...............

A heads up you may be receiving a message from Amos if he spots it. Selling a DIY product for profit is taboo around these parts (even if it wasn't you who made it).

Snazzy stands. I'm still using styrofoam mannequin heads, like (literally) those used for displaying hats. Decoupage them with something interesting and glue or otherwise stick them to something heavy (a base) so they don't fall over.
 
It works well. Less DIY and more crafty.

  So I went ahead and made version 2.0 !
 
This time made properly with wood pins, glue, precise grinding. Stand is oak and main part is pine. it is nicely elevated with rubber feet to fit e10k :)
 
Old version on the right, in the first image. Took apart for for measurements.


 

 

Really happy with results. Maybe v3.0 will be made from darker wood


You could try staining it for a darker finish, instead of a different wood.

I've did that using dark brow wood mordant and totally ruined it by adding too many coatings with spray gun :p Now it's all silver because I've sprayed it too much.
v 3.0 it is then...
