I've used an old plowing disc as a base. Fairly wide stance, almost zero tripping hazard, and free if you can scrounge a worn one somewhere. Bore a hole in the center big enough for the pipe you want to use, then weld the pipe in so it sits vertical. Flip it over and fill the cavity with lead, concrete, or whatever. It helps to tack in some old bolts or something so the filler has something to grab.
The one downside is that it has a sharp edge that may wreak havoc on you shop floor if you roll it around much.
