The wide, clear stand that was popular in the EduCalc days was gorgeous but shallow (it was probably made in Hollywood). My initial Internet search did not find anything that's both wide enough (7.5 inches or 19 cm), tall enough (4 inches or 10 cm) and tilted high enough. Thanks in advance!

I'm bringing 2 different style 71B stands to HHC, so will show them to you next week. Both can be readily made, and to my simple mind at least, far easier than melting perspex, but Robert's probably looks nicer.

Teaser - One of them has a built-in pocket to hold the PIL-Box.

Also, there was a clear plexiglass stand for Voyager series machines (long ago, probably avail thru EduCalc, though I don't recall so) that show up on TAS every rare now and then. It kinda works, as long as you don't press hard on the keys on either end of the kbd; or to say it another way, it doesn't really work. But it looks nice.
