Thanks for the tip on the jewelry stand - sounds like it would be just the ticket. ? I don't think there is a Big Lots store around here anymore, but I see them in my travels pretty frequently.

I am planning on building one for my son-in-law for Christmas and have been looking for a good schematic. BTW, a nice case can be made from a $20 Armour jewelry case from BigLots. The have one that is about 4 feet tall with legs and side opening doors as well as a top that opens. I plan on removing the drawers and replacing with a plain panel then placing speakers on either side that can be directed by the opening or closing of the side doors. The top will open for a music stand with any controls under the top.
