I don't currently have a stand for it. To use it horizontally I would recommend at photo backdrop stand with a stand at each end. I don't think one stand in the middle would be enough unless you are using a heavy duty weighted C stand. The key thing to remember is the size of the hooks on the side, these would limit the max size of the pole. The item I tested mine with was 22mm but it was still a little loose but I don't think a you could use a pole with a diameter larger than 25mm or 1 inch.
