Looking for 17" monitor stand with baby pin

I recently bought a 17" client monitor and a c stand mount for it.

It came with a desk stand but you can only have 1 at a time connected.
It's way to time consuming to switch those back and forth so I would like to find a simple desk stand with a 5/8" baby pin
I can slide the c stand mount into.

I could go with a simple baby plate and screw it into a 1x1 piece of wood but I'd like to find something that looked
a bit better.
The lighter the better as well.

Any ideas or thoughts I'd love to hear them.
Thanks guys.
 
I found a VESA wall mount on Amazon with a swing arm, and a swivel-post thing. I tapped the swivel for a 1/4-20 t-handle and I can put it on a baby pin that has a 1/4" pin-top, like the tops you'd use for a seamless paper crossbar. I use it for a 22" monitor. Here's the link though it's discontinued.

Film Tools has some VESA stuff, you might find something that works, but for a 17" a heavy duty magic arm might work too.

Hi Michael thanks for the response.
I'm actually looking for the base plate part of it. I already have the item in the picture I posted.
basically just need a flat area with a baby pin sticking out of it.
Figured there might be products out there that exist already so I didn't have to construct one.
Thanks
 
Called a "baby nail plate" to be precise.

Film Tools manufactures a really wide range of baby rigging odds & ends, too. You should be able to rig up something cheap, effective and that actually looks nice.
