Is there  any less costly way to accomplish and maintain mast  stability?


***********
Although I've never tried it, a fixture like a bearing plate could made out  
of heavy plywood.
Make the hole for the mast large enough that the mast will be free when its  
in the rotor, but small enough to keep it from wandering during  installation.
Some other material may be a better choice if you're intending on leaving  it 
up there.
