Uses "floor flange" fittings at top and bottom of the threaded "black steel" water/gas pipe that is a standard 36" part at the plumbing hardware stores. I used 1/2" parts but you could use thicker like 1" so maybe the guy wires wouldn't be needed.

The table top is about 20" wide but you could make one the exact size for a mixer + CDJs. But if you had a really wide set of gear this is probably not the right table.

Certainly not that. I have the same stand for an 88 key synth and a 61 key synth and it really isn't the most sturdy of things. Hell, for $100 more you can get an actual stand and throw something flat on it. That's what I've got for the tables/mixer and love it. I'd definitely not recommend a keyboard stand though - particularly the one I have. Hate it, and I'm using it the way it is supposed to be!

anyone using the Sefour X10 Deck Stand? looks nice put expensive! any cheaper versions of it? apart from making it myself which I aint got the time or energy to do lol...

I'm currently using an OnStage Z-stand (can be had for $60-80) with an extruded aluminum frame laid across it to hold up my stuff. It was originally designed to hold 2 CDJs and a 12" mixer in flight cases, but I have a piece of MDF from the sides of a bookshelf across it now.

I wanted something compact and portable (I was in college at the time), and it works well for that purpose. I hang my headphones from one of the arms since there's enough clearance for the headband to fit. There's not much extra space, and you'll definitely have to put your CD binder elsewhere. I'll see if I can find a picture.

+1. I built my entire DJ/studio setup with that list, plus one 16 foot x 1.1/8" dowell, some plumbing pipe fixtures, and some shelf brackets. Whole thing cost me less than $80 and took half a day to make.
