Working behind a laptop at the table because there are no legs is sometimes not very convenient. Stands in the form of books, various daddies are unreliable, since they slip out from under the laptop with any awkward movement. We suggest you to make a creative self-made stand for a laptop with your own hands, which will be appropriate both in the office and at home.
We will need:
- PVC pipes (diameter 2 cm);
- paint for plastic;
- connectors for pipes (6 pcs);
- rubber hammer;
- self-adhesive silicone pads (4 pcs).
- We measure on the pipe segment, the length of which should be 3-4 cm longer than the length of your laptop. In the same way cut two segments equal to the width of the device, and two more segments, the length of which should be equal to the height to which you want to lift the laptop. Next, using the diagram below, we use the connectors to assemble the stand. Unevenness at the joints is removed with a rubber hammer.
- The standard color of the pipes is boring, and our laptop stand made by our own hands must be bright and beautiful, so it's time to start painting. This procedure is best done on the street, so as not to stain the furniture at home. It will not be superfluous and protective mask respirator.
- To the stand does not fidget on the table, you need to attach the legs. They will be replaced by self-adhesive silicone pads. It is not necessary that their color match the color of the stand. Contrast overlays will look more effective. These silicone pads will protect the worktop from scratches.
Now you know how to make a stand for a laptop in a few hours, which will ensure comfortable work at the table. In addition, laptops are prone to overheating, which leads to damage to the hard drive. Thanks to this stand, the device will not touch the countertop, and the air circulation will provide cooling.
