Tired of broken flying stands? Metal flying stands are more durable and are easy to make!
There are a few things you need to keep in mind when making steel flying stands: use strong steel rod, attach it securely to the base, and use the right clippers to cut the rod.
Here's what I use to make them (Amazon Links):
Super Glue: amzn.to/3iNwksx
Baking Soda
1mm steel rod: amzn.to/3QWqd1J
1mm drill bits: amzn.to/3WskZvq
Cutting Pliers: amzn.to/3j0cQAN
A couple things to keep in mind: those drill bits are good for plastic but can break in metal models. Be careful about using "piano wire." It's incredibly hard and difficult to cut - overkill for this sort of thing. But if you have the means to cut it, it'll also work.
Once you’ve got what you need to make them, it’s cheap to make lots more. Always happy to answer questions in the comments!
