Not a shack picture but wanted to share a desk stand I made for the 436hp out of Unistrut, cut and welded and painted black. I'm going to spray the bottom with rubber for better non slip.

Would this work? VPC 13/16 in. x 6 in. Galvanized Strut Channel-13-16-6 - The Home Depot. Very interested in doing this as I can't stand how my 436hp keeps falling over

Yes I believe so. Just bring the scanner to make sure the oval isn't too big on the unistrut

I make these for $15 plus shipping. Also will accept some modifications if feasible.
