Abstract
The present disclosure provides for a stand, the stand further comprised of a pair of collapsible supports for a surface such as a work bench or a press brake. The collapsible supports are secured to the bench or press brake by means of securing clamps. The collapsible supports each have a pair of legs terminating in a removeable and sliding wheel and also have telescopic arms to allow for the legs to independently pivot one from the other. An actuating mechanism is also disclosed to release and lock the legs, the actuating mechanism providing a range of motion between a first extended position to a second folded position.
