Display Stand

[travoski]

Hi All
I am looking for ideas as far as display stands go,My model HMS Victory has a stand supplied by the manufacturer but it is cheap looking and a bit prone to coming apart I would appreciate any ideas
Thanks in advance

I like to use oak for stands glued and screwed together I use cradle style as apposed to posts. it doesn't require screwing the ship to the display, holds the ship perfectly and I can remove it if I want to show different areas of the model easily. I line the cradle with felt to prevent it marring the hulls finish.
