Been selling a lot of the phone stands lately, to the point where I am down to only one remaining. Time to make some more.
Process, while simple, involves several steps of gluing and cutting which slows the process down somewhat
- Cut strips of wood to width, roughly 30” long (enough for two phone stands)
- Glue them together so they make a nice set of laminated wood
- Rip them to final width and cross cut pieces to 8 inches in length
- Sand while flat to 220 Grit
- Cut front groove to seat the phone, and hole for charger cord
- Cut slot in back and bottom pieces for them to next together
- Resand/clean up to 220 Grit
- Finish – 3 coats of shellac
- “Rub out” finish to make smooth
Again, not too complicated a process, but the gluing, cutting, sanding and finishing each takes some time, whether I am making 2, 8 or 100. Keeps me busy in the shop, which I enjoy.
