Friends: 

I recently got a new guitar and when I got an old guitar stand out of the closet, I realized that it was ugly and that I could make something better. 

So I did. 

This is my first experiment with bent lamination, an accessible technique that anyone can use to make springy, graceful curves with wood. 

I'm really happy with the finished product, but as always, I want to hear YOUR thoughts in the comments. 

I didn't thank my newest patrons in this video because it was already a bit long, but I'll fix that in my next video. 

Hope you're all having a great Holiday Weekend!

Bent Lamination Guitar Stand

More video and exclusive content: http://www.patreon.com/rexkrueger Follow me on instagram: @rexkrueger In this video, I make a bent-lamination guitar stand out of scraps that I had laying around the shop. Bent lamination is an easy and accessible way for even the beginner woodworker to make strong, flexible, graceful curves. You could use this technique to make all kinds of DIY projects, including furniture. Maybe a rocking chair?

Nice design. As a side note, what you've done here is reminiscent of an African tripod chair -- most of the examples I've seen are from West Africa. I'd post a photo, but I don't know that Patreon comments allow that.

Thanks! I've never seen a tripod chair, but I'll look it up for sure. You can post pics, etc in the community tab.

That's a really good result. How did you cut the thin veneers for the spiral support? I still think it's a crossbow though.

I actually kid of cut them by accident while I was trimming some table legs. A good table saw and a carbide blade will slice some very thin veneers. I was going to throw them away, but then I was like "hey, these are nice veneers; maybe I should keep them". Glad I did.

Also, I thought I got the long end of the deal. Looks like we each got a great deal!

Additionally, I like the wipe at about 5:00. Very Kurosawa. You should do more of that.
