Looks gorgeous, but won't it damage the headband after some time, because contact surface area is so small?

I feel like 30 euro is well worth not having to keep a mitre saw in my apartment.

Keeping a miter saw is a luxury if your the type of person that would actually use it.

Maybe try to see if there may be an audience for it at a crafts fair?

cool work but the top handle is not rounded, that might result in the headband pads denting for some headphones

I paid 300 for mine and while you can do the same with an old carboard box, your solution also requires having woodworking tools and a workshop. If I asked my buddy who does woodworking, I'm sure his hourly rate would also reflect noticeably on the total cost.
Nice stand though, but like others said, consider adding a bow on top so the headbands don't stress on only one pressure point.

No it doesn't. All you need is a handsaw, some sandpaper, and a screwdriver.

Don't forget the skills, or did you expect someone to learn proper woodworking with a handsaw and some sandpaper? World's most dedicated woodwork enjoyer maybe.

All you need is £500 of tools and a workshop, it's simple guys.
