Music Stands
Bottle Feet
2011 Feb 01
Three Martinelli's Sparkling Cider Bottles form the feet for this music stand.
The shaft on the music holder fits into a Gallo wine bottle.
It was built with recyled wood and paint - and I reused the music holder from the music stand that disintegrated (Music Stand #1).
With 4 bottles, this thing is pretty heavy.

Many of the things below are made from scrap wood and other recycled materials.
Landscape Lights and Piano Frame2012 September 18 This was made from defunct low voltage landscape lights and wood from an old piano frame. It also required some threaded rod, nuts, washers, and some paint. |

Triangle Motif2010 Dec 01 This music stand is also made from recycled pre-primed, interior trim wood with the primer removed. This one has a triangle motif and had some minimal design effort. |

Trapped Wine Bottle2010 Sep 01 My second music stand, made from recycled pre-primed, interior trim wood, but this time used screws rather than glue. Also just built, rather than designed. I built a base and then started stacking stuff on top of it. The music holder has a shaft that fits into a wine bottle. It's painted with leftover interior and exterior wall and trim paint. |

Disintegrated - 1st Music Stand2010 May 20 Here's my first music stand, made from recycled pre-primed, interior trim wood. It wasn't really designed, it was simply built up, ensuring that the center of gravity would keep it stable at full height with the weight of a book on it. It disintegrated because glue joints on primer don't work very well. I did a glue joint test that worked pretty well but it didn't hold up. I recycled the top part (music holder) on a different stand (at left). |
