I've been wanting to build a belt stand for Delaney ever since he got into karate. I saw a friend of his with one and got an idea, but just didn't get it going. Finally a couple of months ago I started and made a template out of some 1/4" hardboard. It seemed to work, so I set about cutting wood slowly, working on it about 10-15 minutes at a time.
I finally got it done about 2 weeks ago and started painting it, getting 3-4 coats of black paint on it. Not the best finish, but good enough for a first attempt. I'm thinking I'll do a second one and try something else for the finish. Over the weekend I sprayed some shellac on it and it was finally ready to go.
Today Delaney and I put his belts on it, and it looks pretty good.
Now he needs to get 4 more belts and it will be full.
