PVC is one of the largest synthetic plastic polymers. It comes in hard and flexible shapes and is mainly used for the production of plastic bottles, tubes, plastic furniture and other packaging, Here I'm focus exclusively on PVC pipes, which are always cheap to get from local hardware store, easy to reach and practical to work well, After serving your primary water supply needs, PVC pipes become one of the most selective materials in the DIY range, Here I covered :-

For every stand section - including the ends - you will need.

My laptop is 15.6 inch, before making cut measure required length.

Hold PVC Pipe tightly with your hand, cut the pipe at the markings using with hand saw.

3 different Lengths Required :-

• 1 Piece of 30 cm
• 2 Piece of 24 cm
• 2 Piece of 6 cm

At the base of the laptop stand, make an elbow cardboard cap. On cardboard, draw 2 circles with a circular elbow, cut with scissors, then glue it on both sides of the elbow.

Sanding is necessary to remove some dirt and stains, as well as a glossy surface removed, which is later good for painting.

Here I painted a white acrylic in the same direction of the brush pattern, giving a straight line effect with a brush stroke.

After painting all PVC pipes and elbows, glue it with tape and hang it for drying for at least 6 to 8 hours.

The pieces fit very tight and remember that we can easily use a laptop stand anywhere in the kitchen, terrace, car or desktop.

This PVC Laptop Stand has a really neat effect, and looks great everywhere.
