Well here's where I'm at so far....I'm going to drill hole the match the equipment. We'll see how it goes....I figure I'll paint them. I found these pieces in my shop....I'm not sure where they came from but as soon as I remember I'll let you know.

Amazing! I'm looking forward to seeing the progress. I could post a picture of my storage device, but I'm pretty sure that everyone knows what a shoebox looks like 
I'm quite jealous of your skill, strprswpr. The pix and idea are really incredible.

Yeh, keep us posted, be interesting to see what you come up with. I made it down to Rockler this morning and was looking over their small turning blanks, and found a couple for about $7.00 each, so I picked them up to play with. Gotta get the wax off them and see what they look like. One is Redheart, and the other is Zapote Chico.
I always thougt this a great idea. Tried to get someone interested in making them. A small "pv holder" would be ideal for those of us that sit in a certain place while online , etc. I currently use a couple jars. But a dedicated holder (w/ bottle spot too) would be fantastic!!

Hey strprswpr, I'm curious, did you turn that flat on the sphere in a lathe, or did you hold it somehow and cut the flat with a table saw or band saw?
I'm not 100% sure where I got it but I believe they are table or couch feet from a furniture supply. My lathe is not big enough to turn something that big. I've done a little research and Home Depot sells the same pieces for under 10 bucks. All I've done so far is do the layout for the holes which by the way is a pain in the ... on the round piece.....no reference points. Anyone could make these with a drill press. What I'm going to do is drill the hole width and depth to accommodate all of my PV's and accessories exactly......I gotta lil OCD. One I finish them I could probably bust a few out for some of the other members.
Drilled out he holes today.....I might have to drill them slightly larger on a couple.....I'm afraid after I paint them some of the stuff won't fit in.
What do you think so far?

Very Cool- I am partial to the round one and the way you spaced it is top notch. I'd stain them as oppose to paint. The round one with stain variations (light/dark) would be wicked cool for sure.
I personally dont think that painting will do them justice, i would pick different colors of stain and a high gloss..............the big round is still my fav!!!! You do beautiful work!!!!!
