Buy one nice workstand and, like any other nice tool, you'll have it for years, it'll work every time and it'll make life much easier.
My dream shop has a higher end Park stand and a nice vent fan to keep the lube from making me see double. Some pegboard, a professional truing stand, a nice stool and apron and I'm gonna be ready. (Again, dream shop. I got nothin' as of now.)
