Desktop model instruction stand

Post by bigdave146 »

Hello all
Not sure which sub forum to ask this in, so I thought I would start here. I am trying to find some sort of desktop stand that i can clip my model instruction sheets to so that I dont have to keep picking them up and putting them down again !!! I have had a search on all the usual places and the closest things I can find are either desktop music stands, which are pretty expensive, or book stands, which are not really what i am looking for. I am after something like a clipboard with a stand on it. Has anyone got anything like this, or have any ideas of what I can use ?
Thanks!!
Dave

Hi BigDave

Try Amazon and look for Recipe Cooking Stands.
Not sure if they ft bill but a damn site cheaper than Music stands.

Have a look and see what you think,

I just used a cheap desktop easel and a magnetic white board. Worked pretty well. Or hang it on the wall.
