  • In this video, I show you how to make an adjustable and rotating cell phone / tablet stand. This stand is adjustable in height and angle, and is mounted on a swivel base. It accommodates a power cord and holds the phone in an upright portrait mode or in a horizontal landscape mode. It's big enough to hold a tablet too.
    Here are some of the tools I used in this build:
    INCRA MITER1000SE Miter Gauge: amzn.to/2LhNpF8
    INCRA I-BOX Jig: amzn.to/2GH8zZR
    DeWalt Planer: amzn.to/2keEwju
    Freud SD508 Super Dado Set: amzn.to/2Lgfixz
    Makita Belt Sander: amzn.to/2IV0HJB
    Freud 1/4" Spiral Upcut Router Bit: amzn.to/2ICAb8z
    Freud 1/4" Roundover Router Bit: amzn.to/2KLtFsG
    Lazy Susan 4" Bearing: amzn.to/2LlEgM3
    Mineral Oil: amzn.to/2IAnElX
    Titebond III wood glue: amzn.to/2IV6MFM

    Yes, absolutely I will make it. Through your creative thinking you have designed and built a very useful device. Thank you for bringing your amazing woodworking skills to the Internet.

    It's absolutely gorgeous, and in high school wood shop I might have been able to have all the machines to make it. Only problem there is when I was in school there were no cell phones or tablets!! Lol. I have some disabilities that keep me down a lot and I am learning to use a tablet and this would be so great so I didn't have to hold it all the time. So now you are going to have me on the hunt for something functional to use. Thanks so much for sharing your craft and talents with us and I look forward to watching you make other things

    Thank you for sharing this build. I have a step grandson that just started college. I decided this would make an excellent CHRISTmas present for him for his IPad. So yes I made it.
    Plus I really appreciate how well you explained the process's through out the build.
    I will be following your channel. Thanks again

    • @Woodumakeit
      @Woodumakeit  7 лет назад

      Thanks, Barry. Our friends won't receive the stand until Christmas so it will be hard to keep it a surprise when it's on RUclips. :-) I won the Instructables t-shirt in a contest that I entered with one of my projects, so I was looking forward to wearing it on a video. I'm glad you recognized it!

    • @barryroberts6470
      @barryroberts6470 7 лет назад +1

      Thanks for the reply, yes i recognised the t-shirt as i'm on Instructables myself, but only the same as my RUclips, just for some Ideas and Plans. It's a good site.

    How could you make this in an adjustable height format? Could you use those metal rods like you see on microphone stands? I am not sure what they are called if someone could tell me where I could purchase the metal adjustable rods to create the adjustable height that would be wonderful.

    Very nice build, but I feel like that box joint tower is super overkill. You could have made that thing 1/2 the width and it would still hold the weight of any cell phone or tablet, right?
    Maybe I'm wrong, but either way, it looks great, and I'm sure it works great.

So your design was very easy for my little project!!!!! Thanks Alot!!!!!!!! I subscribed!!!!!!!

    Great project, but as small as this item is, I would have left out Lazy Susan part. It just seems unnecessary to me. But overall I really like the project. I'm thinking about making one for myself.

    • @Woodumakeit
      @Woodumakeit  6 лет назад

      It makes sense what you're saying, but I guess it depends on how it is to be used. For my friends, they're typically not sitting side by side during the video calls to France, so they wanted something they could easily rotate to be able to point the phone to the person who was speaking. Thanks for watching, and good luck with your project if you decide to make one.

      It does, yes. It's held together at the back with a 1/4" bolt with a knob on one end. Just loosen the knob, adjust the angle, and then tighten the knob back up.

  • @stephenhall3515
    @stephenhall3515 Год назад

    Rather over-elaborate, requiring power tools the average person could only access by arrangement.
    The real work is done by the bearing but in order to make this design suitable for tablets a simple rotating "bearing" could be used so that landscape and portrait orientation was available. This would simply require an extra strip of retaining beading wood so the orientation would be clockwise OR anticlockwise to best suit the wiring running up the column.
    Semi-suction or thin rubber feet would also steady the whole stand in real world use.

  • @johnware5312
    @johnware5312 6 лет назад +1

    I would have pocketed the 2 parts where the bearing is deep enough so there was only about a 16th gap or less between the 2 parts. Would give a cleaner look to it. That gap is downright ugley...

    • @Woodumakeit
