Cheap-ass Coat-hanger Microphone Stand

Necessity struck again when my USB headset for Skype gave up the ghost. Not wanting to spend a fair amount of money on a new on I looked at my Rock Band peripherals, but I don't own a Mic stand and holding the microphone while raiding is prohibitive. Thus the Cheap-ass Coat-hanger Microphone Stand is born.
What you will need:
1 Coat-hanger
~10" Tape (masking or duct) or other means of securing stand to surface.
Needle nose pliers.
Sandpaper.

Step 1 Cut and unbend the wire.

First step was to cut the twisted ends off an old coat hanger and straiten the wire. It is important to remove the twist as it is hard to work with later on and hard to straiten. use the pliers right after the bend to make a fairly strait wire.
