Re: Keyboard stand for CS-80

2007-09-18 by erikfromhere

I mentioned it before in this group, I use pedestals (as used in 
office-furniture) as stands for both my CS80's. Dimensions are: 60cm 
height, 80cm length, 40cm depth. They have 4 casters (not too small) 
so you can easily move the CS80 around. Besides, you can use the 
drawers to store your manuals, parts etc. There is enough room left 
for your legs and feet since the pedestal is at the flat part of the 
CS80. When sitting in front of the CS80, the drawers open at the 
left or rigt side to give you an idea. I placed some wooden bars 
under the synth not to obstruct ventilation.
Good luck with restoring (do you have to ?)your CS80 when it gets 
in !
