Portable compact removable centre stand

My bike with came with a stand the previous owner made. It's two halves that slide into each other and then into the points on the bike.

I've used it loads of times and it's really handy, however I noticed a small tear starting on one of the welds.

I know some people on here have serious tools and workshops available to them so if anyone wants to copy the design before the thing breaks let me know and I'll send it to you.

Lasted three years and always been with me on any serious distance trips just in case.
