DIY basic desktop stand 11 Years, 5 Months ago
In the search for a space saving and ergonomical solution i came up with a basic and cheap but yet not ugly desktop stand.



You need:
2 sheet steel angle for the left and the right side of your elektron machine
2 M3x6 mm screws to fix the angles to your elektron machine
2 hollow aluminium bars in the size of the width of an elektron machinestability
2 screws that fit in the aluminum bar and to screw the bars between the two angles for stability

best,
slx

Cool, I've been looking to do something similar myself. Can you post some pictures of the thing and its separate parts?

This is very simple and neat even though I've made wooden side panels myself!

A boring alternative is to pick up one of these at IKEA;

$3.99, doesn't look awesome, but will elevate your machines.

The Ikea Brada is a stand of choice for many, but the link appears to be dead. Is Ikea still selling it? I was going to get something similar for my wife for cookbooks.
