April 20, 200818 yr Some of you will remember my first turning on my new lathe that Vicki affectionately dubbed the Peppermill. Well the Peppermill has been repurposed, or should I say purposed. It's now part of a headphone stand for a Head-Fier that wanted a 4 phone stand. It's not finished yet, it still needs a few more coats of lacquer. I thought I'd post it though because it's rather unique looking.
April 20, 200818 yr Pretty cool looking. What's the actual size of it? You just reminded me that I have to post up pics of the stand you made me. I never got any good ones, but I think I'll post up what I have just so people can get an idea of how unique and beautiful it is. I'm gonna grab folks with good cameras at CanJam and get them to take a pic or two. Did you ever decide if you were coming to CanJam?
April 20, 200818 yr Author It's about 14" high x 14" across. The base is 2" thick solid Zebrawood to keep the stand stable. I believe the customer has a pair of Larry's Zebrawood Grados. I will not be able to make CanJam. Unfortunately I'll be overseeing the moving of an historical home onto the community center grounds. No way out of it. :'(
April 20, 200818 yr I like what I see and I may have to contact you sometime in the future about a wooden headphone hanging object...
April 20, 200818 yr ebony penis extension. Quick inform steve that his work is being copied. I'm sure someone was trying to sell me ebony penis extensions in teh emailz!
April 20, 200818 yr Author ebony penis extension. Yeah but Reks said I made the hole too big, and it kept falling off. So he sent it back for repurposing. Seriously though it was just a freehand turning to break in my new lathe. I did have in the back of my mind that it would end up in a stand, I just didn't know it would look like Chitty Chitty Bang Bang.

Seriously though, since I'm only going to have a small number of headphones soon (or maybe in a while, depending on how freakin' long it may take to sell some of them ), I'm gonna have to get you to make me a new stand for them so I can have easy access to all of them and free up that last bit of closet space. Maybe we could work out a trade for some headphoneses?

Maybe we could work out a trade for some headphoneses? Consider it done my friend! Whatever you want, the Fitz has Carte Blanche in my shop. Me too. I was hoping to meet you in person. Well, MOA2 isn't that far away. I was really looking forward to meeting many of you, but there will always be a next time, and that doesn't necessarily have to be a year from now. It's finished...
April 21, 200818 yr Ah, that's better, now it looks the part. Hangers always look better with their intended cargo. Nice!
April 21, 200818 yr I prefer Bottlehead's Cable rack myself. Potentially NSFW: http://www.bottlehead.com/et/cable/bottleheadcable.htm I asked my wife once, but she just walked away.
April 21, 200818 yr Nice rack indeed Steve, build one like that and your business would increase tenfold.
April 21, 200818 yr Author some of those cans look NSFW NSFW? Sorry I'm an old fart. Nice rack indeed Steve, build one like that and your business would increase tenfold. Funny you mention that. When Spacemanspliff owned the now famous Darth Boobies we talked about a stand. I wanted to make a custom stand that looked like a bra. The labor involved would have cost a small fortune though.
April 21, 200818 yr NSFW? Sorry I'm an old fart. Not Safe For Work. Although they're nowhere near as bad as the Darth Boobies.
April 21, 200818 yr Author Not Safe For Work OK now I'm even more confused! Is he slammin' my cans? 'Cause I'm not above bitch slappin' his ass! Actually the giant Purple Heart CD3Ks are Larry's work, and I received them as a trade out for some work. The bitches got mucho bass, but they do look fuckin' ridiculous.
April 21, 200818 yr OK now I'm even more confused! Is he slammin' my cans? 'Cause I'm not above bitch slappin' his ass! He's saying they're a little too... sexy...
April 21, 200818 yr I can't help but think the mill would be so much better if the 'props' were motorized, watching your phones slowly spinning.....
