I found an old message thread where someone else was also confused
about how the stand works. There were a couple of pictures, which really
helped me out, but once I did finally get it all figured out, I realized
that a video would really help, so I made one.
It’s also my first unicycle trick! (other than falling off the dang thing) 
It’s actually my Son’s unicycle… I don’t have one yet.
hahahahahahaha +1
It took me forever to figure those damn things out.
Yeah, I was a bit confused about that stand.
So, does the video make it clear?
I should take some pictures too. I have a coupl of pics of Drew’s
first time on his unicycle that I need to download from the camera too.
hmm… i pop the bearing holder in it’s holster and swing the frame into place…
nice, the hidden ingredient is the foot on the damn thing. somehow i have 6 or 7 of those.?
I’ll have to try that method. It might be better.
I think I did try that w/o success, but will revisit the idea now
that I know what the final “installed” position looks like.
I also pinched the oval tube on the base which the vertical part of the stand
slides into so that it was a press fit and doesn’t slide out so easily.
(It takes a vise, pair of vise-grips or a hammer to do it)
You could also put a hole in the tube and a set screw - do it near
the very bottom where the loop of the vertical part goes across the bottom.
Yeah, a lot of analysis for a simple stand.
As I say -
I’m not like this because I’m an engineer… I’m an engineer because I’m like this.
Note the proper placement of the right foot. 
Doesn’t it always go under the tire? 
I’m just surprised no one has admired my shoes yet.
