DIY Laptop Stands

Mike Davis Forewent Typical Laptop Mounts in Favor of His Own Stand

Those who don't want to spend money on auto accessories such as laptop mounts can fashion their own DIY version using their vehicle's existing cup holder.

Mike Davis needed a way to use his laptop safely and securely while driving in his truck. Unable to afford the commercial laptop stands, which retailed for about $300, Davis decided to transform his center console into a base upon which his laptop could rest. He decided to share the wealth, making his successful DIY experiment available online for others in a similar situation.

To make, users need to invest in PVC pipes, fittings and plywood sheets, which can be purchased for around $30. The step-by-step instructions (and pictures) are available on Davis' site.
