Stand for laptop

DJ_Spider

I've poeted this on the woodwork forum, but was wondering if anyone here can help? I am a DJ and I have one of these http://tinyurl.com/3bgz9p I can't afford the special flight case for it atthe moment but I saw this on eBay http://tinyurl.com/2numzf

Does anyone know where I could get the bits to make my own, or could offer to build one for me? Thanks.

Always seems to be out of stock, but maybe you could find it somewhere else

Got one of these http://tinyurl.com/2sekgy I just put a black cloth over it and it works perfect. I can even put my mic and phones on the bottom. Have a good one.

cool, nice and cheap also. I have also improvised with my stand. I use a cheapo book stand, it's almost 5ft in height so the laptop goes on the top shelf and the BCD3000 goes on the shelf underneath. It's very handy for using at home as i can use the other shelves for placing an amp, phones, cds etc..
I don't need to worry about finding anything for live gigs

Bit tricky taking a 5ft bookstand to a gig though! We only got a terios, but got my amp in a flightcase with front and back removeable lids, Kam KCM 350 mixer fits nicely in a cheap aluminium tool case from halfords, just removed the dividers and kept one for the power and audio cables at one end, got my main power, speaker and bits n pieces in a toolbox on wheels from aldi, and a nice briefcase with combo lock for my mic, headphones, diary, and portable DVD player. (for playing long mixes, lappy don't like em!) Also went to the euro store the other day and got a kensington type lock for E2.00! Longer cable as well! Cheap as chips eh? LOL
