Well, my bass is considered a walking, pardon, marching bass, and as such it didn't come with a peg or even a peg holder.
Now before shelling like 200$ for a peg assembly, I browsed the local HW store for an idea, when I stumbled through the automotive aisle...and here it is, the Two Ton Bass Rest, made of a car jack stand. Luck had it that two of them were lying in my basement.
I heavily padded them with felt (so that the bell can't slip away), and got it a test drive. Yep, holds and stands.
Thought I'd share.
(for the upcoming church concert, I'll paint it black)
