chop stick holders.


I just noticed that chop stick holders hold the chopsticks about 1/2 inch, or 1 cm, from the table.I thought they might make good cable risers. They're cheap and made of wood or bamboo.You will need quite a few, so low cost is important.I've never used cable risers and I'm a bit skeptical, but this is might be a cheap way to experiment rather than let my uninformed bias rule!

Great suggestion!  In a hobby filled with uber-expensive tweaks, you can go crazy for under $5.  Love it.
Instead of chopstick holders, tie three chopsticks together (like a tee-pee) and lay your cables in the middle. Bet you can buy a gross of chopsticks from a restaurant supply store for peanuts...
I went to Home Depot today and bought a bag of the Grip-Rite rebar chairs, 20 of ’em for $3.60. Each has a 3" circular base, a 2.25" tall upright, on top of which is an open top half circle, plenty big enough for fat power cords and speaker cables, and any interconnect save the really wide flat type. Thanks @qilin_maker! I can recycle my toilet paper rolls now ;-) .
