You could always use the motherboard's box.

Either this or just make a really basic one with wood or something

I made one myself, you could try something like that, a lot of pre-made test benches are really expensive for whatever reason, especially in Australia.

yeah, but is there any good quality cheap-ish metal ones tat would last me ages?

 

Unlike youd think test benches arent usually very cheap, you could always get a vertical standing mobo case and cut bits off of it.

This did a good job, but you could probably do a bit better in terms of structural integrity.
