    This is a simple and cheap cookbook stand that you can make out of any scraps laying around. It features multiple viewing angles, a fold up design, and two "fingers" that hold open uncooperative cookbooks. It makes a stunning gift and can be built in just a single weekend.

    Another great build! The fingers to hold the pages were a great touch

    Two questions - why did you opt for a glued ledge instead of a hinged one? And why did you mount the fingers in the middle of the ledge instead of in the front? I'm thinking that the placement of the fingers determines the max thickness of the book, and it would be easier to angle the fingers away from you to hold a thinner book, than it would directing them towards you to accommodate a thicker one. Do the fingers fill any purpose when pointing towards you? Otherwise the fingers are never useful for any book that requires more than half of the ledge.
    What's your view on that? Thanks for another great build!

      Howdy, I didn't even consider a hinged ledge but that is actually a great idea. Would have made storage even easier. I think I just went with the static hinge because that is how the old cookbook holder I was referencing was made. Great idea!
      You're right about the fingers too. However, I've found in practice that most cookbooks are not so thick that they don't fit so its not a huge deal.
      great questions, I appreciate the thorough design review!

    Will be stealing that ketchup bottle idea lol. What's the tool you used to make your provisional stop block? And does the guide of the table have spacers on it for that sake?

      That ketchup bottle is honestly the best glue bottle I’ve used. That tool is an Incra miter guage !
