Hi guys

After browsing the Apple Store and checking this out : : Apples Notebook Stand

I decided to make my own:

DIY:
Tools needed:

1. Stanley knife or sharp blade
2. ruler
3. DVD Box or similar

Method:
1. Cut a piece out from the box the same width as your MBP

BTW: The 22-inch LG Screen is connected to the MacBook Pro. You can use it while its closed. No heat issues as well.

Hah-hah - you rock man!

I've also seen people bending 2 wire hangers and hanging your MB/P behind your screen!

A nice option would be to simply cut a slot in a heavy block of wood. Spray it the way you want it and line the slot with a piece of felt.

Some of us dont have the tools or time. maybe you should make and sell?

A hardware store that sells wood would be able to do this for you, you would just have to apply the felt.
