General Information

This stand perfectly combines portability with funcionality. It was designed in such a way to easily be assembled or disassembled for transport, that way you don't have to worry about an overheating laptop when you're on the move.

Choose Material

For this project we need a piece of bamboo plywood that's at least 20 inches long x 12 inches tall, 3/8 inch thick.

Estimated time: 5 minutes

2

Carving

Prepare your workpiece and set up the CNC machine. Start carving the project.

Estimated time: 44 minutes

3

Sanding and Finish

Since it's plywood and we don't really need to sand the faces, the only part we want to sand is the edges.

Once it's all sanded down, we choose a finish. In this case I'd rather go for several coats of polyurethane, since this piece will be moved around alot and I wouldn't want it to get scratched up that easily.

Estimated time: 15 minutes

Share and Enjoy

Since I do not own a CNC machine, I can’t really make these projects using that process, so if you do choose to remake my projects please share the pictures of it.

Enjoy!

Estimated time: 5 minutes

Great job! Did you design this in easel? I tried making it out of 1/2” ply but forgot to adjust the dimensions accordingly so it didn’t fit together in the end ! Live and learn.
