Well, theoretically, you could throw about four or five of those
2x4x6/8? weight bricks that came with some of the floatable boats to
act as a counterbalance in the base of that stand. As for keeping the
thing actually on the stand, I guess you could so some technic beams
and pins to act as support rods. Don't know how well that would work,
it should be interesting to see how these things stay on their stands.
