I made this headphone stand a few years ago. It’s been on my desk holding my headphones everyday since.

It’s black walnut that I made with handtools, a drill press and a lathe. It’s finished with pure Tung Oil.

        It’s not too bad if you find a good exotic woods dealer. I normally don’t splurge for the big boards, but I pick up nice chunks of cutoff for smaller projects for super cheap.

        If you ever need a board foot or so of it for a little project and aren’t able to get it locally, hit me up. I might be able to send something your way.

          I appreciate it :) for small stuff like this it’s not that bad just more than say maple.

            Oh for sure. I went to a new dealer recently and found some wenge, which I’d never even seen before, and picked up a couple of short boards (like 5 bf) and it was $60. Wood can get crazy pricey for the uncommon stuff lol
