Ebook holder.

[MWF FEED]

I'm a pretty lazy sort of an individual, holding books and flipping pages is just too much hard work, so I made this ebook holder. The base is a couple of weights left over from my weight lifting days. the centre piece is of 30m solid with a 5/8" hole though the middle, the swinging arm a piece of 5/8" tube I bent on a jig I have, and a clamp that tightens inside the swinging arm to attach the ebook holder to, similar to a bicycle stem. I used a slightly bigger piece of tube over the 5/8 for bending and bent from both sides to keep the bend looking neat. The ebook holder is a piece of 1.5mm aluminium sheet I cut and bent up to fit the ebook. Here's some pictures, start to finish and the view from my pillow. I'll paint it pink I think, the wife should like that.
