    Default [EOI] stackable figurine stands

    Hey Guys, not sure if this is the correct place to post, please move if required.

    So, I started building these stands to maximize the space in my display cabinet, and thought other board members might be interested. I am currently looking at EOI to see if this project is worth continuing and also determine what sizes would be most appropriate for people's collection, official sales thread will be created once design is finalized.

    Looking at creating 3 different sizes, these stands will stand at about 50mm tall. Sizes will depend on the feedback received in this thread.

    The price will vary from the 3 sizes, more material = more costs, to give a rough idea, I would be looking at around $50 for a pack of 10 stands (platform size 100mm x 100mm, this is still a WIP and can change depending on interest and feedback).

    The pack will include 10 platforms with 4 pre-drilled holes, and a bag of 40 rods. It won't come assembled, makes it easier and safer to ship. Superglue is required for a fixed and strong assembly, this is due to varied tolerances in manufacture.

    This will all be done in my spare time, so turn around time can vary.

    Think that's about it, let me know what you guys are interested or not, comments and criticisms welcome =D

    Looks pretty nice. I would actually be interested.

    So $50 for 10 stands sounds ok.

    If I wasn't possibly moving I would be all over those. Good work and I encourage you to see the projection through to completion, I think they look excellent. I still might just pick up one set...

    Looks quite nice and professional. Unfortunately I have very little space left in my place, so I will take a pass. But great work!

    They look great!
    In my opinion a little expensive for what they are, especially as glue/assembly by the buyer is required.
    Another point that might help in sales and/or cost reduction is that only 10 for $50 is nowhere near enough for a lot of members here with very large collections.
    Would you consider doing packs in greater quantities such as 50's or maybe even 100's?
