Like the stand...wish I were more creative with
organic materials...;-]
Mind a few suggestions? And then it's ready for
mass-production (you are prepared, aren't you?)
Shape the groove at the bottom to fit the conturs of
the curve on the Newt, plus put felt in the cradle to
swath the Newt in comfort (my personal favorite is
UltraSuede) Then put a silicon rubber strip on the
upper end (clear would be best) to prevent the Newt
from sliding off of the stand.
And, oh...I don't know...perhaps an emergency wheelie
bar in the back to prevent the whole thing from
tipping over backwards during a particularly rousing
game of Jig?
I'm sure that you already getting requests...
btw, about that logo...did you freehand it or is it
stencilled?
