Cool DIY Wooden Phone Stand

In this application will share you step by step to make a super simple and cool looking phone stand.

Step 1 : Choose Your Wood

You can use any kind of wood you want. So far, we've made phone stands from pine and oak. for our stand we are going to use maple.

Step 2. Chop Chop Chop

The size of your phone stand mostly depends on the size of your phone and how big you want it to be. The sizes for mine range from about 5.5 X 3.25 in to 6.25 X 3 in.

Step 3: Cut the Groove

We used a table saw to cut the groove that the phone sits in. We adjusted the blade to cut a slit about halfway through the wood.
To make the groove wider, we just kept running my board through the saw adjusting the fence as we went. About three to four cuts did the job. The width the works best for our phone is just under half and inch.

Step 4: Angle the Grove

Cutting a slight angle into tho groove allows the phone to sit at a bit of angle. If we knew the degree of the angle, we would tell you but we really just adjusted it until it looked about right. You don't want too much of angle though.

Step 5: Smooth Out the Groove

Since we ended up breaking out some of the uncut pieces from the groove it was pretty uneven. we found a piece wood that was just the width of the groove and wrapped sandpaper around it. It worked really well to smooth things out.

Step 6 : Finishing Up !

After we sanded everything down we sealed it with linseed oil.

Step 7: Optional Designs

For one of the stands, we taped off the edge and painted it white. When it was dry, we finished it up with linseed oil. we did not put the oil on the paint since we wasn't sure how it would react and we didn't want it to discolor it. Instead we sealed the white part with a clear acrylic finish.

You could just seal the whole thing with some kind of clear finish but we liked the color the pine took when it was oiled.
