Ring Stand: a Brass Rod on a Board Foot with Sliding Rings (Faraday, 1830)
A stand that holds flasks and basins at any height over a lamp or furnace. Michael Faraday (1830) describes the retort-stand: an upright brass rod on a heavy foot, with rings of several sizes, each on an arm whose socket slides up and down the rod and is fixed by a screw-nut at the back.
Brass feet filled with lead tip over under a heavy vessel, so he makes the foot a stout board about 12 x 6 x 1 inches, the rod fixed 1 1/2 inches from one end, and stands the lamp or furnace on the board under the ring.

"It is much better to make the foot of a piece of stout board, about twelve inches in length, six inches in width, and an inch thick. The upright rod should be fixed about one inch and a half from one end of it, the lamp or furnace should be placed upon it, and the ring of course in a corresponding direction. Such an arrangement is perfectly steady, and cannot be overset by any weight which it is strong enough to bear."

Use it
Stand the lamp or furnace on the board and turn the ring over it. Slide the ring to the height wanted and tighten the screw. Do not set a hot flask on a cold ring, or a cold, freshly filled flask on a hot ring over the fire: the bottom may come out (Faraday §388).
