Morning,
So i got totally sick of my ipad falling over in its flimsy cover/stand that i paid 40 quid for.
So i thought id knock together something more substantial  :)
Now im about as useless with tools as a priest with an AK47
but that was not gonna stop me.
Now it looks like an orangutang made it, but i couldnt live without it now.

so how bout just for a laugh kids, you fire up your hacksaws and lets have a homemade ipad stand challenge.

here is my beloved abomination  ;D









Your laughing, but you want one lol.

thats funny.i had a similar prob yesterday and used my heavy ass boots to stand a piece of cardboard up.

my guess.get three pieces of wood the length of ipad.one should be a 2 x 12
the others would be 2 x2.
lay the 2 (2x2) on top the 2x12 and use long wood screw or wood glew and screw them to the 2x12 with just enuf space for the pad to be wedged in or maybe a little larger so that pad can lean back a bit.
then if you want o go fancy paint or prime it.
goto local highschool wood shop and have kids build it.the teacher would love you for finding a project that kids could make money off of.
everybody who has an ipad would spend 20$ for one.

GOD IM A GENIUS !!!

Good idea mate. I just found  4 off cuts in the shed which just happened to be roughly the same length as my ipad then screwed them together.
It's so sturdy . My mates want one. Sweet.
Thanks for the reply  :)

Nice splinter shredding Hendrix LOL

That angle look's good for times when we have people over and someone want's to show someone something on the ipad.  At that angle all four of us could view the screen a lot more easy !

Don't know whats going on in Ye Olde England now but heck you guy's are kicking some serious butt in the Two Wheel World no matter where I look and I like it.  ;D

Wiggins, The Atherton's, Cal Crutchtlow... and ofc Peaty. Pretty much the whole of Two Wheels World covered there :D

And an Ipad stand made on the cheap to solve a problem, unlike ozzie's expensive venture into this device :D
