I've noticed some of you have display stands for your Fett masterpieces and was wondering where you obtained them?
i posted the same question a while ago... paper towel holder and a foam ball stuck in the top work killer and no more than 20 buck for a chrome one. i just made one for my new MS3 :-)

Free standing toilet paper stands at Walmart $9.98.
Modification is required, but it's easy to do. I just did one tonight.
They have to be shortened which requires a piece of threaded rod. Even with that you have less than $15 into and you can custom select the height.
Since it is a toilet paper holder, the base is really heavy to make it stable.
I can post pics later, if anyone wants to see.
The simplest ideas are the best. Sure, I'd love to see your display stand examples. Thanks guys.
here is what i did.. towel holder, cut off the rubber part in the middle, took off the knob on top, jammed a foam ball on top and your done.
hope that helps out

Sweet, I ws thinking of making some but hey, that works even better!
This is what mine looked like when I bought it:
Here is how it looks after a few simple mods.
I cut down the tube.
The inner rod that holds this thing together is only threaded on the ends, so I replaced it with threaded rod.
Then I replaced the toilet paper holder with a piece of wood which I added a piece of foam and then covered in black leather looking vinyl.
I had the wood, pleather and foam already. Materials cost me about $13.
I tried the foam ball and did not like it and ended up with this.
My son and I modified it in about 15 minutes.
Since this stand is so tall, you can custom cut the tube to whatever size you like.
