The leg members are pivotable to a position parallel to the longitudinal axis of the support column and can be slidably received within the lower end of the support column for storage. The arm members can be detached and placed into a cavity at the upper end of the column for storage and transport. The leg members support the column in a manner such that it leans forwardly.
