I built a D5H by simply gluing a Klingon pod to the base of a D5 mini. Here's a picture:
I drilled a hole in the bottom of the pod, cut a stand short, and used a piece of brass rod as a ped to connect the two. I could have used a standard height stand, but the mini would have stood too "tall".
Because of the slope of the D5 rear hull, the pod isn't parallel with the axis of the boom. To correct this, you would have to build up a small "platform" on the underside of the D5 hull to keep the pod "flat". In my case, I just accepted the angle that resulted from the pod attached directly to the hull.
