Some people claims that I am collecting far too much junk… Today I found a use for an approx 80 x 40 cm piece of MDF that I had left downstairs since I renovated the kitchen some years ago:
\nThe start of it all<\/a>. I used my Hercules bass stand to get some ideas of how much I should tilt the bass in the stand
\n
\nMeasurements<\/a><\/p>\n

The total height of the stand is to be 38 cm (the adjusted size of the piece of fibre board). As one side of the MDF has a cover, it is important to make the two parts mirrored.<\/p>\n

Swearwords!<\/b> my circular saw is too whimpy to cut this piece of fibreboard.
\nToo thick fibreboard<\/a>
\nI recall having the same problems when using it initially…. Had to resort to other saws to finalize the cutting..<\/p>\n

The first side is cut, and the acid test is, will the bass tip over backwards when placed in the to-be-stand…
\nTesting point of gravity<\/a>
\nSeems to go well, it was even possible to get it to rest in a half stand, althought it was not too difficult to tip it over and the bridge seemed to get some weight that I didn’t like. When finished, I’ll put in some kind of foam to protect the bass better.<\/p>\n

Both pieces being prepared<\/a>
\nBoth pieces are cut out and the surface preparation is started. <\/p>\n

A router is a handy tool to make a place for the hinge.
\nHinge put in<\/a>
\nIf I had had the least of experience, I would have done this before starting on the surface job… The hinge was something that I just had sitting there, waiting for a reasonable usage. <\/p>\n

I’ll add some kind of measure to limit how much the hinge can open before taking the stand in real use.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
