Moved - Need Advice

So, I recently made a 500 mile move and my Egg table was in rough shape. I had to junk it after 12+ years...
I have no way to purchase a nest or construct another table for a while due to the move.
Does anybody have any creative (cheap) solutions so I can enjoy egging again?
The majority of ideas from friends and family aren't secure enough for my much valued egg...
Thanks in advance!!!

Are looking for a portable solution or can you set it on a paver with an air gap for time being?"The pig is an amazing animal. You feed a pig an apple and it makes bacon. Let's see Michael Phelps do that" - Jim Gaffigan

Stack cement blocks to get it off the ground and go with it.

Dunno where you live, but how about looking for a $50 nest on the Craigslist? When you're done with it, sell it for $50?

Don't really know how long - but I usually use it a few times a week at least. Cement blocks could be the best option. I just worry that it may topple over.
Looking on Craigslist, nothing yet...

Contrary to normal procedures, just throttle-back on the adult beverages and the blocks should work-as long as you don't own a dog . That combination could be DEVASTATING. (Inside forum thread joke).

@drummerboy If you want, I have an unopened Large nest. I assume you have a large...
Can you wait a week? I'm at the beach and when I get back I'll send it out.
No charge, just private message me your address... Not sure how to PM but someone on here can help you with that.

My freezer is almost empty of SRF steaks. I have no way to purchase any at this time. Does anybody have any creative (cheap) solutions so I can enjoy my egging?

RedSkip hooked me up folks!! He was so kind to send me an Egg Nest!
When things get more stable and I build another table, this definitely gets passed on!
