The only thing I can think of is that you can't and don't!
But even if you let them drain after they are watered elsewhere,
then hand dry the pot bottom....there is still the humidity
that will be trapped under the pot as it breathes!
And I never see anything under the pots, to protect the stand?
So whats up with that?

You don't!

My stands are used for showing the bonsai only. 99% of the year the stands are put up waiting for the next time I show a bonsai.
