Great idea and they look non-slip too. Are the wide enough to be stable if ya run the truck on it?

Here they range from $6.00cdn - $15.00cdn depending on witch shop you hit.

Any guitar shop will have them no mater how small.
Check Ebay under Foot stool in the musical insturments

Thanks for the info on them! I am gonna have to try one of these. For that price you can't go wrong.
Found one where I get my recording equipment, http://www.samash.com/p/FS7850BFoot%20Stool_-49951443 but found one cheaper at the "Bay"

Rubiconmike, that's an awesome idea and I'm going to have to get one to try out. Best of all they are cheap, I found foot stools as low as $7.00 on ebay!

There was actually an RC company that tried marketing these about 6-12 moths back as an RC-stand... Was 25-30 dollars just for the added RC sticker

The forum crowd gave them alot of love until someone with a guitar posted thier stand and called them out on it, Went south pretty quikly from there although they did claim a nitro safe paint I am not sure I am buying that story

Good solid stand either way, just a lot more reasonable at the guitar stand price

Where did you put the weatherstripping?

 

[AzRon]

I put it along the edges to give it more grip.

 

[Racer 1966]

Never seen the tilted top ones online. I'll have mine tomorrow............hope they aren't that way.

 

[WoodiE]

I'm going to order 4-5 of these next week to give away - solid idea and dirt cheap!

Where did you put the weatherstripping?

You can get weatherstripping at either a hardware store or automotive store.

Got that Woodie, just was wondering where he put it on the stand. Thanks! That is a great idea on give away! :thumbup1: I may do that for the club I am in.

 

[AzRon]

Mine was more tilted on the lower settings, but only slightly tilted on the highest, hardly noticeable.

 

[Rubiconmike]

I've bought a couple different brands some are more tilted that others.
I find it nice to have it tilted a bit when you are sting down working on the truck.
