Tuba Stand for VMI Neptune

I recently purchased a VMI Neptune "Mel Culbertson" CC tuba and would like to find a tuba stand which will accommodate it. I have a K&M stand for my Mirafone 186 but it's not wide enough and the side supports are not large enough. I suppose I could bend things to fit but thought I'd ask to see if a larger stand exists. Thanks!

I've been using a "Baltimore Brass" tuba stand for years with my Neptune. It's been a real workhorse and has held up wonderfully.

Another vote for the Baltimore Brass stand. I used one many times with my Neptune and my old Holton 345 and It supported them very well. Now I just got stronger and sit the Neptune on my lap, as for me It is more comfortable.
Best,
