OT: My DOT stand :OT

I love the simple to use DOT. It has tiny feet to stand straight up but I had a problem reading it from inside as I needed it on a slant. So I made this simple stand using a stainless steel electrical plate. I cut the edges so I could bend it.

    Very creative!

    My Dot has a stand on the back...you can use a fingernail to lift it off the bottom. It stands on a slant. Works for me.

    Oh well - the angle of the built in stand still wasn't as much as I needed so all is not lost!  =)

    Going to get a 3 day break from offshore. Will be in Matamoros for the next couple of days. Hey, at least it’s dry land  =)
    And as always, please forgive the hijack my friend. Hope you are doing well.
