I like the curved design, the other is a bit to boxy looking
the other is sleek, unique and tad more stylish IMO.

The files are hosted on my server, which is having a couple of issues with speed at the moment, thats why the pics take awhile to load. I'll put them on another server tonight and get one of the mods to update the links.

Both are nice, I like the simplicity of the curved one and think when touched up would look for professional.

yeah im going the 3 piece. just due to the fact that it is alot stronger and will last being thrown around from show to show. also we cant bypass the face that we are actually driving our cars over these so you would thing the would have to be a solid build.

I can't really say I dislike either but from what I have seen in the pics above I would prefer the first option

I like them both but prefer the simple thinner look as you can see through it better too.

Pretty much and if members still want to make their own they can, those that made the stands just need to work out pricing

We are going to organise a group buy for the stands.

This way its going to be easier and cheap for the members to get the stands made...

After a decussion at the club meeting its seems we are 50/50 on the stands and the club agreed that people could have a choice of stand they wanted...

We will organise group buy shortly once i have spoken to both people who are making them...

OK as stated in post earlier their $50 raw, unpainted so you can do the final finishing touches yourself..

The plate will be A4 size standard
Orsm 6 jack wants the display plate to be A3 size, extra cost.

ORSMEL X 2
REDRUM X 1??
ROSCO X 1
ORSM6T X 1 ??
