Found this interesting stand for IPADs in a work area: link

It's intended for cooking but if I bet if you used an Ipad as a reference it would work on your painting desk too.

You must be joking – I wouldn't put an i pad within 20 foot of my painting desk !(They are quite expensive!)

Although that is very elegant I bought a stand for my Ipad on Amazon for £7.00 GBP including shipping….

$50 USD is a whole lot to pay for a chunk of metal to prop your iPad up with. I'm not sure it's worth it. It doesn't even have a charging station built into it.

Ha. I went to the Lego store and bought the pieces to make myself a stand out of Lego, with a ton of extra lego bits besides, for about $11. USD

This is the one I built for my cell phone, so it's a bit smaller than you would want for a tablet, especially the back piece. And for a tablet you might want to glue the pieces together. The elastic bands are there to provide grip on the tabletop so it doesn't slide around.

COOL.

Why would you pay good money when you probably have a case/cover which does virtually the same thing?

Well I have some plastic, 4 inch pipe around. Couple minutes with a hand saw a bit of hobby foam and I will have my iPad stand.

Don't they have a glass front? Paint should come off pretty easily.

Yeah but it can't do the surface much good ?
