Another headphone stand that I made based on a design I saw here... It came out alright for my first go.

Man! looks really nice, I am betting it could be made cheaper than that, could even put some lighting in the base so the acrylic lights up

Then get to it...
I'd like to see an engraved mfg logo (say like Ultrasone...) light up in the middle of the acrylic!

Did your posts get deleted? I can't seem to find any pictures of the Omega clones you made earlier in this thread.

Might have something to do with this user maybe? He is tagged as a Member of the Trade, and that's his only public post.
Also this probably shouldn't be talked about... as there will always be a problem with selling replicas of commercial product, even if it is just for cost of materials and shipping.
Is yakiboy an original headphone stand designer or just a copycat of Sieveking Sound Omega and ROOM`s Audio?

Why would that be a problem? No different than offering your services modifying x headphone, right?
I am going to guess Yaki being a MOT, he can't post photos of his work in this thread....
Since I posted a photo of my stand built by him. (Yaki)

Modding a headphone, and selling a replica trademarked product are two totally different things. I have no problem with either personally but some mfg's tend to have different views on the subject. On Sieveking's site they state "The Omega's design has been granted a design trademark by the European Union already." and warn about clones out of China...
But your are probably right about him being a MotT and not allowed to post his work here...
It's still a damn nice stand!

Interesting. I think Sieveking was referring to Chinese replicas being passed off as the Omega stand. Yaki doesn't do this.
So...
Sometime I think the MOT rules should be reevaluated. But yea, my stand should be shipping very soon.

Finally got around to making a headphone stand...
The base is oak, the upright is pine, the hangers are made of 1" conduit covered in heat shrink, held in with a piece of all-thread. I haven't stained/painted it yet, not sure what I want to do...

Here is the finished "Dual Omega" Yaki made.
I am horrible at taking pictures. I'll take a few more
when I get my headphones back from being hardwired.
Yaki did a great job, stand is very nicely built.
