I wanted to try and build a charging station to accommodated all my Devices without using all my plug sockets in the house and without all our devices lying around everywhere so I came up with this design. I think every home could do with one of these.

I cut out my shapes from scrap wood, I made them from large to small to suit all my devices. This was my first design, the excess cables were suppuse to be wrapped around the center supports but I found it was still very messy and my phone and Ipad did not sit on there very well, so I decided to make a box stand that did not work out very good either.

So I combined the two and came up with a great stand that looked good and kept all my Devices tidy while they were charging. And the best thing was it only uses one plug in the house.

This is what the inside of the box looks like. The charging box was glued in the box. I added the rubber clips to keep the cables tidy on the top, which you can label if you need too.
