Build a Headphone Stand

Build a Headphone Stand

My son is a musician. He’s pretty good, too, and I’m not just saying that because I’m his mom… Take a listen here.

He asked me if there was any way I could make a stand for his headphones (this may be the only time we ever “collaborate” on a project together!) so we sat down and created a design that would work.

Materials:

• 2 – 1×3,  at 9″ long
• 2 screws
• Wood glue
• Drill
• Jigsaw

Let’s get started!

Cut a notch in one of the 1×3 pieces as shown…

Draw a line across the width at the center of the other board and drill two countersunk holes. Attach the base to the board with the notch as shown using glue and 1-1/2″ screws.

My son bought himself a pair of “Skullcandy” headphones and painted the stand to match…

The headphones came with a skull stencil so we put it on the base…

Then sealed the stand with three coats of Rust-Oleum’s Ultimate Polyurethane in Satin…

The headphones fit perfectly and the stand came out great!!

Until next time,

Happy Creating!!
