Well, this city is making $3200+ a year (year takes about a millisecond). I could have built arcologies a ways back but decided to just do it the old fashioned way.

My city is up to $544 million dollars. 115,000 people.
I been letting it run in the background for like the last 20 hours, to generate money.

Ah ha! $1 billion + ... a new all time record for me in Simcity 2000.

looking for a very short table or speaker stand for my Klipsch Reference RC-62 II.
looking for under 13in tall stand. maybe potential ability to angle the speaker upwards.
ive seen stands online for like $65 to $80.... but thats expensive.
id like it to look nice, but theres some step stools for like 7 bucks lol.... but those dont look great....

theres gotta be some weird shoe rack or something.
i wish i had the tools to make my own out of wood...

Silly you. You probably googled speaker stands.

https://www.amazon.com/s?k=wide+book+stand&crid=2JTII06L8LKD4&sprefix=wide+book+stand%2Caps%2C121&ref=nb_sb_ss_i_1_15

Ok, ya see this book holder? It's made out of a single sheet of plexiglass, heated and bent to shape. It's way too small for that herculean speaker.










But.... you could get one custom made...







I've dealt with AIN Plastics many times...they have store fronts, where they will do custom jobs like this for a customer off the street. If not AIN Plastics, then there will be a custom plastics shop, somewhere near you.



/e You could also go for aluminum, but I would imagine it will cost more, and "sound" worse, when holding a speaker. Might want to also checkout a small wood/cabinet shop in your area for something similar.

Like this, if made from wood...

thats a good idea but i doubt any of those would hold my speaker, its quite large. wonder the cost of a custom made one lol... prob alot

i was looking at shoe racks and short coffee tables. even saw some step stools in stores lol...

thinking about somehow asking home depot to cut some 2 x 4 for me and i can drill in bolts to hold wood together? and sand and paint? but no idea on plans for it and don't want the cost to be too high... under 40 would be great.

Aluminum extrusions are incredibly versatile if you like the look.

I don't think i have the tools required to make a stand with metal sadly. looks interesting though.

Looking at monitor risers. but all are a bit too short. need at least 10 inch riser... perfect stand height would be like 10 inches to 12 inches.

I am thinking something like this and can paint it... simple lol

Can add these to angle the speaker up a bit

Either a wooden stand or maybe some pipe speaker stand with metal or pvc pipes.

Yeah I looked up the dimensions of the speaker. Roughly 8x12x24


Do like this. 2x 1x12 vertical grain fir, 1x 1x8 vertical grain fir, 4x 2x2 (w/e Height you want. Home Depot will cut all this for you. Should run about $30 total.






Here, this is a SIDE/END view. The Yellow is the END of the speaker...

Cut this one into a 24" long piece and cut the rest of it into 1' x 2" for the legs (instead of the 2x2's)
