Hi everyone,
 
First time post here but was really insipired by everyone's contributions.  Here is my take on the headphone stand.  It is made up of purpleheart for the top and base and walnut for the supports.  Let me know what you think.
 
Cheers,
 
Al

Did you fashion the 90 degree angled part yourself or did it come that way?

Wow all these stands are super impressive! I've been thinking of putting together an aluminum stand, but I've never worked with the material so I have no idea what tools I need for it. I can AutoCAD a design, but I'd rather stay away from CNC for cost reasons. Any know how easy it is to get started with aluminum working in a home workshop (hand tools, no lathe)?

I made two 45 degree cuts with a craftsman cordless circular saw. Pilot drilled a hole so the 4 inch screw would not split the closet pole, also, I don't know if you can see, but I had pilot drilled the hole and screwed the screw in an upward angle.
 
Edit:
Looks like crap from the back  :/.

Just got a low end, but decently reviewed headphone amp (ART Headamp 4) and of course didn't like the way it looked. So I did something about it.

Hey Guys,


 


This is my first post on this forum. I've been checking this thread out for a couple of days and I loved all the designs that everyone has. I especially loved the Sieveking Sound Omega stand and the fact that someone made one of cardboard. But considering I just bought a new turntable that my wife and the neighbor prefer I listen to with headphones, I thought I'd make my own version using LPs (Vinyl that I had, but didn't really listen to) Don't hate me Chicago fans :wink: Let me know what you think!

From the front, it looks almost like the omega headphone stands.  Nice.

Hot dang that base is hot. Too bad your actual stand material couldn't match the base
