Wooden bike stand?
I remember a long time ago someone made a bike stand out of wood and it looked ridiculously nice. I believe he/she even painted a logo onto it? Cinelli logo maybe? Anyone remember? I'm looking to make myself a small wood stand to keep my bikes standing in my living room.

Hello thank you. I did but it was very shaky. one of my brothers (he has a shop full of wood working stuff) help me repair it and works much better now. I just purchased one of these it is similar but free standing. https://cgi.ebay.com/FREESTANDING-BIC...lenotsupported

I made this one out of some shop scraps. Getting the angles right is kind of a pain. I need to make some more but never seem to have the time.

"Do-It-Yourself" red alert. If you like this idea, which I do, save the photo to your hard drive and/or print it out now. Yea, you can call it up later on the site....but this is a quicker, easier and more sure-fire way to have it on hand when you need it. Hoping to make one of these for my '78 Diamond Touring...a future centerpiece in my living room.

On the stand, you want to remember to design it so it holds the front wheel steady and center or it will not work.
