You might want to try using a good wood stain instead of black paint to give it a more finished and professional look. At least, that is the route I would go. Otherwise not bad...although your KF looks pretty dusty.

Something I thought of while looking at the pictures was the idea of using a tight hinge on the back wood part to allow you to adjust the angles. You could also mount some small but nice speakers on the back base behind the kindle to plug into it and give it some extra volume. You could, possibly, even hollow our a couple of speaker holes to drop them into the base as well. Lots of neat ideas are coming to me as I write this!

If you're going to do the speaker install on the back of the stand these speakers might be a good pair, they're from another thread on here.

I liked it w/o the paint, perhaps a wood stain + varnish would've been better, or some really really dark stain. Nice job though, gave me an idea to do something similar since I do have the basic tools lying around Thanks...

p.s What cover are you using on your device? Pretty light & nice.
