Get the stand that is made for it. If you're going to lay out as much cash as it takes for the 808, spend a little more for the stand. Otherwise, it's tough to find some way to keep it safely on your workbench.

Yes, and what I neglected to mention as a warning to new users is that the 
barrel is ALWAYS hot.  Care must be taken when laying it down as to WHERE you 
lay it down.  If it's plugged in, it's hot and can cause serious burns and 
burning.  But it's great at what it's designed to do.

The Hakko 808 also makes a GREAT magnet wire enamel stripping and lead tinning 
tool!

A hearty second on the Hakko 808.  Every builder needs one.  Slicker than wet 
sn*t on a door knob.
