I recently found a YouTube video of a guy who build a nice stand for less than half the cost of a axis stand. I decided to give it a shot and I am quite pleased! I have less than $150 in it as I found a baja axis plate cheap. It takes only around 10 minutes to make work and has similar features to the axis stand as it uses the axis top baja plate and the swivel.

In one of the pics, I circled where you can see the pipe gets larger towards the top. You cut that off, and it's the same size diameter as the axis swivel. You then attach the swivel, drill 2 holes (5/16) where your locking pin goes through and you are done. I'm pretty happy with it, I have always been to cheap to buy a axis stand and my rigid stand is a pain in the ass sometimes lol

Speaker stand- $25
Axis baja plate- $110
Axis swivel- $50

Ok thanks I am blind.

Also, is it pretty sturdy ?

Yep, actually surprised at how sturdy it is for $24. It has a rcmax 80 supreme in it, with a steel pipe, flm extended arms and other numerous upgrades. It is pretty heavy and it is very sturdy
 
Well done sir. Very nice stand I am super cheap so I build my 1/5 stand out of scrap aircraft metal and bended the plate the car sits on with our Brake. I build mine to rotate 360 degrees it just does not tilt as yours does but since it cost me $0 I can’t complain ?
