Stand for holding sax while playing it

I have not been able to play for several years due to a bad auto accident that left me partially paralyzed in my hands due to damaged disks in my neck. I can not bear weight on a strap and the shoulder harness is just is bad. I remember there used to be bari sax stand that you could at least sit and play with the horn mounted. I do not really want to custom build it if there is one off the shelf. I need one for alto tenor and Thanks

    Thank you all who helped. I found the solution to the problem. I started Using a harness with modification to more evenly distribute the weight across my back. It seems to work great.
