Tablet Stand Made From 400 Page Book

Tablet stand made from a 400 page book and some epoxy resin. Paper micarta is the proper term for it, but it doesn’t really capture the essence of the idea. Those 400 pages hold but a single story, and now they can upright a device capable of holding thousands of stories. Really it’s the ultimate upcycling! And with only a book and 30 some odd ounces of epoxy, you can make your own!

Those 400 pages hold but a single story, and now they can upright a device capable of holding thousands of stories.

Cutting the groove was a simple matter of setting the blade to 20* and making a series of passes.

Finishing time

Add a little enamel for protection and you’re done!

Really it’s the ultimate upcycling! And with only a 400 page book and 30 some odd ounces of epoxy, you can make your own!

Sanding

I put on a brand new belt for my sander and it was totally gummed up by the end.
