@dj_southern_comfort, you killing me man!!! This is your niche. You were made to make these consoles. You can bake so much money, more then you DJ for, because a lot of business will come your way. You want to know why? Consoles like you are making, cost way over $2,000 to $2,400, and you can undercut the greed that’s out there. If you get 10 orders a week, and you sell them for $600 to $700, you don’t have to DJ no more. I’m telling you sir, the people will come. I hope you reconsider.

Hi firstly i love your videos, without doubt the most insightful ones online which is going a long way to help me build my stand, and love that you have shared the links to all the parts you have used. Question the tripod laptop stand, you mentioned this is modified. Could you share how, and what other parts you used? Did you still use the Speaker Mount Adapter with M20 Threading, Black? Any guidance is appreciated, thanks again for the great video!!

@@djrroy1 I basically cut the top area of the tripod, about 3 inches below the knob. I then cut the Speaker pole to my desired length. Fortunate enough the tripod poles fits almost perfectly inside the speaker pole. I slid the laptop pole portion into the speaker pole and fastened with a couple of self-tapping black metal screws. You can use black tape to thicken the laptop pole to better fit (Snug) inside the speaker pole. I hope this is clear as mud.

I cut it with a grinder and metal cutting wheel. I slid the one side into the other. I used some electrical tape and rapt it around the inner pole till it fit sung. I attached the with a 1/4 flat top self tapping screw.
