Build Your Own iPad Stand Using iPad Packaging
Environmentally conscious iPad owners have a nice option for making their own iPad stands, if they haven't recycled their packaging already.
Ian Collins, developer of the NinjaCam app for iPhone and maker of a collection of iPad wallpapers, posted plans for making a stand out of the iPad's packaging to Flickr on Tuesday.
Collins made the stand out of the two rigid recycled paper end pieces that hold the iPad's box in place inside the packaging by cutting the pieces in half and cutting a slanted notch to hold the iPad. With his design, a total of four stands can be made from the parts.
"All you need is a knife (or preferably a small hand-saw) and a few minutes of spare time," Collins wrote in the notes accompanying the image.
Collins said the design keeps the home button accessible and includes a built-in recycled logo.
The largest version of the instructions is available at Flickr.
