I have seen a lot of ideas concerning Cable lifters

I have seen a lot of ideas concerning Cable lifters and all seem to be pricy considering the value and appearance. But what if there was an answer that cost virtually nothing and you had the option to choose a multitude of designs and capabilities?
Glass is probably the best Neutral choice and what do we have in abundance. Used glasses (Goodwill). There are so many options around and possible just waiting one more day you can find exactly what you want and even if you don't like their choices there are options at stores that go far beyond what the High End Audio vendors offer. Here are a couple of examples:

Look forward to hearing the outcome. I think cardboard X’s with rubber bands across the top will produce a very positive effect if you have a sufficiently resolving system.

I bought a bag containing 20 chairs at Home Depot for five bucks. Wrap a rubber band around the tops of the rebar support "arms", and lay your cables across the bridge the rubber band has created.

I usually like looking at a mono block amp on the floor in front of the speaker, but the Haus-boss like them behind the speaker (out of view). I am not sure what the speaker cables on ^there^ cost, but I suspect that it could be approaching the cost of a second amp? Obviously I am more of a mono block buy than a cable lifter guy. But the latest used amp is a stereo tube unit, and I should either sell it or be happy with the long speaker cables. Since I did not have any of the long speaker cables laying around, I am using the lamp cord until the cable arrive. Glass is probably the best Neutral choice and what do we have in abundance. Glass has a high breakdown voltage, so glass and porcelain are great on old power poles with high voltage… and they were even popular 150 years ago on the local telegraph lines. But I suspect that other materials may have dielectric constants that are better (lower??). (Was that covered in the bunking video?)
