I got my stands friday (wooden & acrylic). They are awesome! Only thing is, the acrylic stands back part was already broken :( Is it possible to buy only that part? For now I'm going to try to glue it together.

Larza,

Blast! Looks like the post office smashed it. I will mail you a replacement tomorrow morning (can't mail it today because there's no post office open on Sundays). No charge. If you get a chance, send me an email with your order number, just for reference.

If you try to glue it, the best glue is weld-on #44 or straight methylene chloride. It will actually melt the acrylic together. Superglue might work.

BTW, I couldn't access foldstand01 or 02.jpg -- 403 forbidden.

Just now, I took an acrylic stand and tried the same thing, with the same result -- no marks at all. If you like, I can make a video; just let me know.

Thanks for the response fake , I really appreciate it

It would be nice if you make a video that shows it ,I totally believe you without even making the video :p . Maybe showing in the vid when the keyboard pops open/when putting the phone in and out of the stand and see how it affects bazel of n900 .

Thanks in advance , It seems it is not possible to make it in matte blue paint :( lol

Cheers.

I'll try to make a video sometime today. As for the matte blue paint, sorry -- I'm having enough trouble with getting the black paint perfect as it is. The last batch of stands took an extra two days to dry due to the solvents in the paint affecting the non-slip coating, and I have whole boxes full of stands with bad or uneven paint. For now, I just have to stick with what I know works. :)

Fake,

Thanks for the laser-cut stand - it works great.

Someone else may have mentioned this, but I added a homemade customization to help the resistance of the acrylic version on flat surface - rubberband. Very nice now. Here is a pic of it below:

Much appreciate the great work!

Very cool -- thanks for the tip/mod!

It makes me wonder if I should put some notches for a rubber band in the next version...

You'll get one one way or the other -- but....

Has anyone in Australia received their stand order yet?

Yes, black is matte/flat. There isn't currently a glossy black one. The clear acrylic stand is definitely glossy.

Haha, kudos man, I love your little commercials, you sell the products, but you're being honest about it (like when you broke the acrylic stand.. Aww.. :P), I loved it, and your voice is very commercial-y, very nice work.
Oh, and thank god for laz0rs..
