I made this headphone stand a few years ago. It’s been on my desk holding my headphones everyday since.
It’s black walnut that I made with handtools, a drill press and a lathe. It’s finished with pure Tung Oil.

It really does, too bad it’s so expensive. :(
Turns out I built my workshop under a black walnut tree. I didn’t recognize the thing by sight, even as it rained nuts on me.
It’s not too bad if you find a good exotic woods dealer. I normally don’t splurge for the big boards, but I pick up nice chunks of cutoff for smaller projects for super cheap.
If you ever need a board foot or so of it for a little project and aren’t able to get it locally, hit me up. I might be able to send something your way.
I appreciate it :) for small stuff like this it’s not that bad just more than say maple.
Oh for sure. I went to a new dealer recently and found some wenge, which I’d never even seen before, and picked up a couple of short boards (like 5 bf) and it was $60. Wood can get crazy pricey for the uncommon stuff lol
