lol, no it is not a DIY stand. It is just a cheap ol` plastic banana stand that I am using temporarily. (used to hang a bunch of bananas on)...lol
Since the tip of the banana stand can possibly mark up or dent the headband I used some heat shrink tubing I had lying around, put it over the tip where the headpones hang from and stuffed it with cotton padding and then used a hair dryer to shrink it.
The metal banana stands are quite sleek looking actually. When I see one in a store I will pick one up. They are only a few dollars.
I would really like a wood headphone stand but in my searches they are like $50-$70.
