DIY Monitor Stand

How To Make A Monitor Stand / Riser (Oak)
I’m board of my hollow wood door editing desk! Well If I lean on it my elbows will go through it!
So time for an upgrade, starting with the monitor stand, made out of local oak that I milled and dried, then taking the Apple cheese grater look as my inspiration came up with this design, with a dash of epoxy to save me dusting them darn holes!
This is one of 3 vids to make the whole set up, and I can say it’s miles better than anything out there - dare I say the “ultimate editing desk” haha Well, its full of wood-porn for sure!
It’s defiantly over the top and has left some peeps lost for words!
Stay tuned for the coming vids of the whole process!

I've been sitting on this vid for a few weeks, thought it was crap and didn't wanna release it - sorry for taking so long guy/gals! Hope you're all well and good?

It’s your vision for interesting and new ideas I appreciate Ben. Not just sticking to precision craftsmanship it’s great that you bring in curves and freehand. 👏

[@HewAndAwe]

Gotchya, thanks mate! 😊

I remember those *educational* films too. 🙂

[@FixitFingers]

Sweet holey drilly buff pads Batman. There is more cheese in this video than at a Kraft convention. Those popups! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@ChrisFranklyn]

Shiney! A lot of jizz references and I'm not surprised with all that buffing...

[@troyqueen9503]

Wife loved it and the video was great.👍🇨🇦📐

[@HewAndAwe]

Happy wife happy life! Cheers Troy, hope you’re having a great weekend! 🍻🍻🍻

[@alexcollins9513]

Ben, only you can make something so simple sooo complicated. Brilliant piece of artwork again, I may need to watch some of those "educational" films again 😉😉

[@HewAndAwe]

More a case of make something that looks boring look exciting 😊

[@northroadwoodwork8616]

Cool project, looks great. Unicorns!

[@HewAndAwe]

Haha, you got the unicorn bit then, funny how some dont get that 🤘

[@SujMenon]

Noice!! Looks great, Ben. Liked the background music 🎶 and text references! Lol .. the monitor stands feet fits perfect (more or less) 😜. But the amp(?) fits really well.

[@HaggisFist]

Dig it. Like the through port windows.

[@HewAndAwe]

Cheers bud! Gave its something a bit different eh, nice to look at some nice wood at home for a change! The next two vids - just pure wood-porn! 😂

[@luizzahome]

Hello master, you are doing great work, congratulations bravo 👏🏻

[@Sly_Wolf_1]

Lovely job mate, love the design. You had me giving it large with Sid James laughter 😂 every time a caption popped up. I just watched a master at work creating another great innovative piece mixed with some "carry on" humour 😂 Brilliant!

[@HewAndAwe]

Cheers dude! Sorry for the late reply too... :-/ The good old days eh?! They just dont make anything like that these days :-(

[@Sly_Wolf_1]

@@HewAndAwe i never thought that in my lifetime I would see a warning come up for a carry on, wtf!? Home your having a good weekend buddy.

@@Sly_Wolf_1 haha thanks mate! 🍻🍻🍻

[@bufunga]

What a cool design. Really like your vids.

[@HewAndAwe]

Thank you Bufunga, hope you're well!

[@brucelefevre1522]

Really entertaining way of illustrating an interesting project. Recently, I took your advice on the use of Unicorn Jizz. I am now a convert to PU glue but will be more diligent in the use of protection (gloves) in the future. Ben, you better brace yourself as I'm sure you'll be on the receiving end of a good many thumbs up.

[@HewAndAwe]

Haha, its great cause its quick by what a PITA if ya get it on your hands, even when you think youre safe to take the gloves off the hands find some somewhere! 🍻🍻🍻

A whole desk top with a smart bulb underneath, so you can change the hue and brightness at will. 🤔😏

[@HewAndAwe]

Juuuuust working on the edit now... 🤘

[@steveo7913]

Another stonking nice build 👌. Love the porn named tools!

[@HewAndAwe]

Hey buddy, hope you're well man! Thank you for the complement! 🍻🍻🍻

[@chrisstearns10]

Cool design 😁what do you think about a light underneath?

[@HewAndAwe]

Funny you mention that, I searched online for some that can be in resin, received them put them up against the resin and they looked shite, there wasnt a nice glow more a bright white dot so I canned the idea 😏

[@chrisstearns10]
