so i cant have like a crazy bolt on cdj stand because i dont want to bolt it down to my furniture...
so i decided to build something to go on top of my dresser. im still working on it.. but i got most of the building done.
pics are in my garage so excuse the mess :)
as you can see i have 3 stands, 2 taller ones where my cdjs will go and the middle one... same size just a bit lower where my mixer will go

as you can see its still a work in progress. the wood is not painted and the metal bars which look nice and polished are covered with blue painters tape because im about to paint the wood black

u can tell the difference in the height here.

these metal things will be sort of "stopers" that will go infront of the stand on top drilled on and polished just as a little more security so if my cdj slides down it wont fall.

will post pics when im done prob during the week or weekendz0r |

and turned it into this.

Some advice:
You're going to need more than those "stoppers" to keep the heavy CDJs from sliding.
Consider bracing the legs with Xs to prohibit any lateral movement. |

The metal bars standing up does not prevent the stand from shaking sideways. You need something to keep the bars from wiggling around under use.
Like that:

yeah i wasnt sure of the angle at first but now im hooked on it. i dont how tall you are but im six foot so its right at face level for me. i like your idea more than my own tho. im just not good with wood and this was a cheap alternative. |
