I'll get some pics of the home made one in our workshop ,im in on thursday and ill put them up in the eve'.
I must say it looks kind of flimsy :? ,ill clamp a bike in it an see if its strong enough for general strip down kind of work,gears etc.
Have you tried a gas fitter? i think they use 3/4" steel pipe,.
No doubt jewsons or travis perkins will have them,have a good look those builder merchants .B&Q,they stock damn near everything these days,you might find something you can adapt,maybe a lighting tripod or other pre-fabricater box section folding frame.
If its going to be somewhere it isnt moved much then scaffold is good as its very strong,but its also very heavy,3/4" will be far lighter but im not sure its strong enough.
If do decide to use scaffolding,just look for building works and 'borrow' one or two lengths.
LGF can offer insights on using a grinder to cut it

however my late grandad did have a bit of scaffolding but the house is down in kent =/ and im not sure if my grandma has chucked it out! that would be a shame!
