THE DIY HEADPHONE STAND THREAD

Steel108 is that stand on the left is a holder for something (before it became a headphone stand).  I've seen those around on Head-Fi and have always wondered where you can pick something up like that.  What was it built as and where can a person pick one up?

posted this in the show your headphone rig thread, but figured i'd post it here too:
 

 
2x4 foot 1/4" pegboard, with 4" and 6" hooks and some baskets/tool holders.  total cost of all materials is probably around $60 (with ~40 hooks left over for future expansion/reorganization).  i just got it all together today, so i'm not sure if this is the optimal arrangement, but it's waaay better than before.

Well the copper stand got a bit of "Spit & Polish".
I didn't care too much for the can spray lacquer... If I build another, I'd get it clear coated at a body shop.

Thanks sammcj
 
A little glass shelf would be nice, but I've never worked with glass...

It's actually really easy, best thing to do would to grab a cheap picture frame with the glass pre-cut, if it's not thick enough go visit a local glass dealer and ask for an offcut, they'll probably even size it for you!

I'll check into an offcut at the glass shop, a piece with a little bit of thickness to it.

Hey, maybe this picture will work:

 
Best one so far. Didn't realize what it was at first, but then I realized that it was a wrench!

May as well post my stax stand. Had the aluminum bit done at a local welders. The (amateur) leather pad work is mine though.
 


That's pretty classy...the cable just adds even more class heh.
