Build This Cigar Box Guitar Stand for Under $20

Cigar Box Nation member, Gene Dale came up with this simple, yet effective PVC cigar box guitar stand. Last week, he posted a blog about it and showed a few pictures. We then got an email from Austin Coslar who was inspired to build his own...and he documented all the parts needed:

12 x 3-way connectors
4 x elbows
4 x end caps
2 x long pieces of foam (28")
4 x 18" pipes
4 x 30" pipes
8 x 5" pipes
8 x 6" pipes

Now this is one of the best idea's I have seen. I live alone in a smaller apartment in a wheel chair My biggest problem is where to put things down. I just finished my first 3 string am working on a slide four string and a base guitar kit.

Big problem is working space and where to put things down. That has just been answered now I just need to get the pipe.

Great idea, Maybe I will add wheels
