I’m not dead, yet

As the title says, I'm still here. I just haven't really had anything worthwhile to actually make a blog post about, and instead I've been making updates on my Twitter.
I still don't have anything really interesting to add, but I thought I'd still make a blog post about the fancy speaker stands I built myself!

Last week, I made a decision that I would go and build my own speaker stands as I could only barely hear the speakers I have behind myself. At first I was looking into buying a pair, but I really don't feel like paying $60-70. And it turns out that building them myself only cost around $9-10.

The result wasn't that bad either, if I can say so myself. I'm going to paint them eventually, I've just been a bit lazy considering it's good enough for me as it is. The speaker stands are standing 90cm tall and are perfectly matching the height of my head when I'm sitting down in front of my computer.
The guy who sold the material to me was really nice and let me get the plates for free - as it pretty much was in the garbage material box. I only had to pay for the poles.
