Ya know what. not that your stand isn't good, but I think you should make a stand out of old motor cycles. now that would impress me.

Thanks Andy! I am just waiting on a little warmer weather so that I can do the painting. I am going with flat black krylon fusion for the plastic and flat black on the stand. The cans say 15degrees is the minimum but I thnk that I will chance it if we get a day in the 5-10degree range... guess I waited too long to get started.
Cheers - Chad

Black eggcrate anyone?
Well, I took advantage of the brief warming to do some painting. I put one coat on the stand and one coat on the egg crate sides. Here is a comparison shot:
 I couldn't be happier with the results. Not only is it cheaper to buy the white stuff and paint it, it definitely feels stronger and 'less brittle' than the regular black eggcrate. The krylon fusion paint seems to act like a flexible coat of armor. - Chad
