This is an old post, but is new to Lemmy. I got lucky with some roadside scrap wood, and this was the result! The full-res album is on imgur with build info. I made this about a year ago, and it’s holding up great! Did routing to clear out the bowl, then hand-cut the joinery (mortise and through-tenon) for the stand.

The full build album is on Imgur (with notes and a lot more pictures).

Yeah, it's a little goofy having a $300+ metal pair of headphones that I baby because I'm worried they'll spontaneously disintegrate.

For what it's worth, I've had no issues so far, but they're rickety and the adjustment slider is really "grind"ey. I hang them by the metal to avoid stretching the strap (you can see in the picture). They're still really comfortable, and the earpads are holding up well for now. Fingers crossed...
