    Default Built a stand

    Not the prettiest thing in the world but it does the job. Missing my kramers in the picture though, didn't bring them to school.

    BTW, that green guitar looks familiar.

    That is really cool. you might think about sharing a parts list with lengths etc. How does the price to build compare with buying one?

    This one looks pretty good. More stable with this design.

    Cost me a little less than $20 which is much cheaper than even the chinese crap you can get, and more sturdy.

    that's just too cool! I see a nice one day project in my future. I guess you could paint it as long as you use a good primer.

    Great Idea! Something so simple that it should have been thought up long ago.
    You can't spell Deluxe without spelling Del

    This stuff is close to what the makers put on their stands, and they sell something that is a little more rubbery that might be easier on the finish. This hasn't shown any signs of wear on the finishes in the few weeks they have been in it. Though i did think of wrapping it in something a little softer, just for caution.
