Did some rough but important design work today to decide on a final shape for the stand.  My design is based off one by Craig Yamamoto, and is also influenced by George Nakashima.  Right now I will probably use walnut and beech, or walnut and quartersawn white oak.  Either way the walnut will be mostly for accents, mainly the base, the adjustment mechanism, and the lip of the stand. 
Great class period, it was really interesting to hear what everyone is doing as their project.
