Here is my home made bike work stand. I would love a nice Park Tool bike stand, but they are pretty pricey.It was a lot cheaper to build my own. I have been using this stand to work on my bikes for at five years or more, and it still works great. The basic design can easily be modified for your own needs.
The latch is called a “straight loop draw latch”. I originally bought it at Lowes, but am not seeing them there now. I don’t see them at Home Depot either. But I found a bunch on Amazon and other online places.
Here is a page with detailed plans and parts list for this bike stand:
