I made a concept render of a render of a stand that I designed. I hope to have it built sometime soon! If it isn't clear, the top piece of wood is held up by a 1/4" sheet of glass, I realized after I'd rendered it that it was at a bad angle.

look in to make my own soon, lots of cool ideas here

I swear I have found the cheapest banana hangers ever. I was initially looking at bed, bath, and beyond and linen&things and only found ones that were either $20 or broken. So I went over to Walmart and looked around their kitchen section. Guess what I found for $5. This has to be the cheapest stand around. The quality is even better than the ones I found at bb&b and lnt. For anyone who doesnt have a stand yet you now have no excuse.

BTW, this was at a supercenter so I'm not 100% certain that the smaller ones carry these. For $5 my pricey headphones don't have to rest on my desk anymore.

Not the cheapest but definitely good. Someone mentioned it waaaay back years ago in this thread and I went out and found a pair for the same price myself. I slightly modded mine, I didn't like the way the stand marked the headband so I found a round knob, drilled out a hole into the stand and screwed it in. You can kinda see it here in the back with the HD600s on them. And a 3M hook on the side for the cable.

Built mine from some scraps I had around. Designed with the future in mind can handle up to 6 sets of cans if needed (only set up for 4 right now).

Used small square dowel rods and drove them with a hammer through the holes in the rack cross piece. Then wrapped para cord arounf them to pad the head bands/protect them from the wood. Thicker section at the end of each to keep the headphones from falling off

Pretty simple project only took about 2-3 hrs to mark, cut, assemble and clean up

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

Awesome man looks like an improved version of audio technicas stand:

 
What program did you use?  You might want to use acrylic and map gas to make the cut sides look smooth and transparent, it'd be cheaper and a lot easier if you have access to map gas.  I posted renders (much crappier) of a concept I had months ago. Unfortunately I never got around to finishing it now it's just sitting in a corner 90% done lol.

Just bought a 5 rack guitar stand for my headphones. I have some mods in mind for it that i will post with pics as soon as it arrives.

I used Blender (http://blender.org) to model and render it. I may make a re-render now that I have the materials, and know the dimensions. Unfortunately, I couldn't find any acrylic of the right size. Also, i'm just a senior in high school, so I don't have access to MAPP gas. If i did, it'd be a no brainer to use acryllic. Does anyone have any hints on how to make the glass stay in place in the groove? I suspect that I'll have issues with that. I also couldn't find plexi of the right size, which was annoying.

Ikea PC system hack

Sanded and painted an old chopping block from the kitchen.  Added 2 steel rods and drawer knobs.  Headphone stand, done.

Thanks.  But more like time, not talent.  I've got a lot of time in my hands.

  Improved on my earlier build.

More ergonomic. Lighter.  More functional.  Better finish. 
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Wow, your headphone stand is the most impressive i've ever seen before. Did you make it ?
