Tablet stand made from a 400 page book and some epoxy resin. Paper micarta is the proper term for it, but it doesn't really capture the essence of the idea. Those 400 pages hold but a single story, and now they can upright a device capable of holding thousands of stories. Really it's the ultimate upcycling! And with only a book and 30 some odd ounces of epoxy, you can make your own!

Tablet Stand Made From 400 Page Book
Those 400 pages hold but a single story, and now they can upright a device capable of holding thousands of stories.
Cutting the groove for the tablet
Cutting the groove was a simple matter of setting the blade to 20* and making a series of passes.
Finishing time
Add a little enamel for protection and you're done!
Really it's the ultimate upcycling! And with only a 400 page book and 30 some odd ounces of epoxy, you can make your own!
Epoxy Lots of Epoxy!
After 30 ounces of epoxy I was getting close to exhausting my supply!
Clamp it up
Even with all these clamps there was still a slight wave to the pages
Removing the cover
I really wanted to get down to the words. Now this is heavy reading!
Sanding
I put on a brand new belt for my sander and it was totally gummed up by the end.
