Stands are useful for keeping your instruments safely to hand, without having to
lay them down on the floor. Use them for practice sessions or during a
performance. The pegs can be removed from the bases of the stands for ease
of transport. While the stands are used mainly for recorders, they may also be
built to accommodate other instruments (e.g. schawms, oboes, flutes, cornets
etc).
Stands can be constructed for any instrument combination. Examples shown
here are sopranino to alto in elm (right) and sopranino to tenor in sycamore
(left). Images of

Recorders are from the Conservatoire range by Dolmetsch, apart from the
sopranino which is one of their hand- built instruments.
