[HAM] Keyboard Stand above Hammond Console

[Doug Brydges]

I built a riser unit with thin (1/4") maghogany veneered particle board for a 66-key board which places the k'board at a generous angle on top of my M-3. I finished the exterior with flat black because I use it on top of a multi-board stand for gigs. But it could have been finished to almost match the Hammond cabinet.

I also mounted a power supply receptacle inside it to accept wall warts for the k'board, monitor/headphone mixer and a Rolls Rotahorn simulator, and a couple of lights to illuminate lower keyboards. It has a detachable AC cord & female plug in the side (from an old computer power supply case.

THe mixer, rotahorn (1U rackmount),lights, and an on-off switch are mounted in the front face. The back panel is much higher than the front to set the board at a reachable angle.

I'll snap a photo with my digital camera and share it shortly.
