DIY Tablet stand with PCI Brackets

I received my 2013 Nexus 7 a couple of weeks ago.  One of the things I miss most is that my old case that allowed my tablet to sit up at an angle on a table for video viewing or reading.  I have a new case on order but it is going to take a few more weeks to get here.  I went searching online for cheap stands I could make and I ran across several ideas and combined a few with what I had.

To make this I took a blank PCI Bracket I had in my desk and bent it in the middle a bit so that it would stand up.  I then bent the 90 degree angle portion a bit more (125 degrees I would guess) so it would grip the edge of my 2013 Nexus 7.  (Since it’s so thin it’s pretty slick).  For as simple as this is it works well, and it even works for my Note 2.
