I'm looking for a good, stable stand.

I would prefer to NOT spend $300, but will wait a few weeks and save my money up if needed.

I'm currently using a Pentax PF-80ED straight-bodied scope.

Would ideally like a stand that can be used standing, sitting or prone.

Home-made stands, that don't require the use of a lather or other special equipment to make, are also possible options.
