My Homemade Cable Risers
1 Attachment(s)
This all started when I moved my electronics from between my speakers to the side of the room. That left me with long runs of I/C cable. I've always like the look of cable risers, and I needed the more organized look to satisfy my OCD.
I had some American Cherry left over from making some table legs. The remnants were 1-5/8"x 2-1/2". I had several feet of it. So, I thought that would make dandy cable risers. I cut each one to 4" long, and routed the channels in the top side. Then on to sanding and finishing. I left finish out of the cable channel, uncertain as to any reaction it might have with the cable jacket. Lastly I glued a 1/8" Sorothane pad under each one. Tah-dah. Cable risers. Natural wood matches my listening decor better than alternatives. Critiques? https://www.audioaficionado.org/atta...4&d=1500066919 . |

Aaahhhh, but you could have obsessed and read review after review and posted and then been flamed and generally cogitated over the whole thing for months, and then spent a boatload of cash on something that would do just the same thing - what a missed opportunity.
Actually, very well done and hats off. |
Thanks all. Of course if I valued my time, these are the most expensive cable risers known to man. But, it was fun mixing woodworking and audio. Next up, I have to do the same for my speaker cables.

cleanliness is next to Godliness ............well done, but more importantly you didn't spend silly $$ as others have done !

Are you aware of the electron emissivity of cherry wood compared to other woods, ceramics and various forms of glass???
The wood working looks excellent. |
