I have a cheap stand made from tubing and flatbar and a dishing tool of the same ftatbar. Both serve me just fine but the dishing tool had a tube that fitted over the axle so I had to remove the nut or QR every time I checked and put it back on for a secure stand mount. So I made a sideways "U" from two pieces of aluminum angle. Now I just slide the wheel in so the "U" flange fits between nut and locknut. So nice I wish I'd made it years ago.

Sorry, I am still digital photo ignorant and hope to stay that way.
