I am making the rope stands for the shows now also. I just made another set for one of the guys here in town. I am charging $35 for the stands. That is basically my cost to make them plus a couple bucks. Here is a pic of the stands. They will be raw, you will need to paint them or do what you want to them. They are made out of wood. So they are light weight and easy to carry to the shows.
Here they are raw.

Here they are in black. These are the ones that I use for mine.
