plug display stands
 
I know you can make them but I have seen nice lexan stands are they available commercially?

BigFish 02-09-2009 01:42 PM

Mr. Sandman 02-09-2009 01:51 PM

Made these out of the craft wood they have available at Homie's/Lowe's. Simple to build cost is minimal. These are made from ash. I am making some from oak right now. The uprights I just use my drill press and cut a half hole the same diameter as the individual end of the plug for a nice fit.....sometimes a little work with the drum sander to make a nice fit!:cool:

nice stands but i feel and dong take this the wrong way its a little over powering the plug.

almost don't see the sweeeet plug as much as i do the stand just my 2 cents....

BigFish 02-09-2009 06:11 PM

Got any ideas??:huh:

make them out of lexan then...

stores sell smaller pieces 2' x 2 '
cut the parts
then you just bond them together
after you buff the edges that show

That was my first thought, 1/16 thick. Good idea though.

google forming plexiglass, it's a thermoplastic. heat it up and it softens
And if you know a glass guy you can get all the small stuff you want for next to nothing

i think i remember seeing the stands in a plug building supply catalog online. staminainc.com maybe...it's been awhile

Raven 02-10-2009 05:58 PM

tons of sites
 
but it's called acrylic ....

Backbeach Jake 02-10-2009 06:11 PM

Why not bend up some stands from some nice wire from the craft shops? That would be even more invisible than plexy.

Raven 02-11-2009 07:14 AM

or levitate them... :think: :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:
