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.

Stunning, and the wood really works with the black. If I saw that on a coworker’s desk I’d think this is a man/ woman of taste.
Thank you very much for your compliment. :)
It is beautiful
also hashtags isn’t a thing on lemmy, you can delete those when you paste your post on every social media you’re on :>
Thank you. :)
Hashtags work as a search function. It’s an easy way to find specific things.
This is the only social media site I currently post to.
I thought it was just for aesthetics
I don’t think they work how they do in other social media with linking but if you search “#woodworking” you’ll see the posts with those specific characters.
That’s really the only reason I use them.
Love this! Made me dig up mine to post as well.
Nice, lets see it!

Really nice. What headphones are these?
Thanks :) Sennheiser Momentum 2 Over Ear.
The newest version is 4.
Beautiful in its simplicity.
Thank you :)
Unnecessarily sexy for a headphone stand. I love it.
Haha thanks, I think aesthetics can make a persons day a little bit better.
You are absolutely correct.
Black walnut looks so good with everything
It really does, too bad it’s so expensive. :(
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
Turns out I built my workshop under a black walnut tree. I didn’t recognize the thing by sight, even as it rained nuts on me.
Nice work! How is the horizontal tenon attached that the headphone rests on?
Thanks! It’s a small mortise on the vertical component and the horizontal has a small tenon. Then just wood glue to keep it together.
Absolutely gorgeous.
Thanks!
Good idea to hide your Tonfa.
