Adustable Wooden Asian Arts and Crafts Music Stand



Here's a 3d animation of an adjustable desktop music stand I designed. It was inspired by a combination of the Arts & Crafts Movement of the late 1800s with a touch of Asian design aesthetic. I'm planning to make it out of White Ash with Black Walnut pegs.

Height: 10.5" - 16.25" (adjustable)
Width: 17"
Depth: 5.75"

The music tray adjusts along a sliding dovetail and is held in position with a peg. The side legs are one piece of wood that sticks through the center section of the stand. They are held in position by a modified pegged mortise and tenon joint with pegs on both sides to clamp the center section of the stand. Because of removable tray and side legs, the stand is able to be broken down flat to fit in a 1.5"x10"x17" area.

If all goes well, I'll begin manufacturing and selling them on my Etsy account.

Using The Ideas

The ideas and images presented here are intellectual property and protected under international copyright law. If you intend to market the idea to the masses and/or make a copious amount of cash out of the deal, there are a few things you need to do first.

  1. Contact me and let me know what you intend to do with the idea.
  2. If I like your plan for implementation of the idea, I will sign over the appropriate rights or attempt to direct you to the appropriate individual or group that holds the rights (in the case of ideas that are not my own).
  3. If you are planning to mass produce the idea (i.e. an idea for a consumer product, book, or vehicle I've designed), I would like a working finished copy of the concept upon it's completion as well as a small negotiable royalty fee.

Some of the ideas I will present will be relatively open source and will be noted as such. If you would like to contribute to the idea, you are more than welcome. Should the idea progress to a marketable state, any profits gained must be donated to charity or used to further the research & development of the concept.

The Organization of The Site

As with most ideas I come up with, this site is still in an ever-changing state of flux. My organizational skills are a bit of a mess, so this site may look like a bomb exploded in the menu or be so anal retentively organized that navigation is a chore. Please bear with me. I'm still working on the best way to group ideas to make the site as user friendly as possible.


If you like the site and/or are feeling generous, I humbly accept donations.
