I need something that I can do simple maintenance with but is small enough or fould small enough to travel with. Any suggestions?

How small is small? The Ultimate BRS-70 Consumer Stand has a claimed weight of about 10 lbs, and a carry bag is available. It's on special at several outlets right now (REI, Performance, Excel) for $119.95. I just bought one yesterday. I wouldn't exactly call it dainty. It's a full sized, full featured stand. But, at 10 lbs., and with the way it folds, you probably can't get anything lighter or smaller in profile. Oh - don't confuse this stand with the "other" Ultimate Consumer Stand, the BRS - 50. The latter, though less expensive, is heavier and doesn't fold as neatly. HTH.
