peninsulamike,
What I did is cut a piece of cardboard out of a TV box I had around. I cut it 38" wide by 13" tall, then scored it horizontally 2" up from the bottom, Then I folded it to a 90 degree bend, and duct taped the back side of the bend just to keep it folded. I sit that on my music stand, making my "shelf" 38" wide, 11" tall, with a 2" lip on the bottom. It''l hold 5 pages of 8-1/2" x 11 paper. I'll try to post a photo.
