I feel better about the 1/2" rod if it goes all the way through, but 1/2" doesn't sound particularly rigid.
What I would do is make the 1" tubing (below the 1/2" rod) flush with the bottom board, so that the 1" tubing can't flex under load. I don't like any give, flex of sway. Notice how it's harder to do a handstand on carpet or any surface with give, versus a hard floor?
I've been thinking about making something like this but I want it to break down for easier transport. I was thinking about something close to what you have but with the down tube (1/2" rod in your build) sleeved at the base inside a slightly larger tube and secured with a pin, like this: https://www.amazon.com/Curt-Manufacturing-25080-CURT-Safety/dp/B001GN3H5A But the fit needs to be tight, so I might need set screws. Something that looks like this at the base. https://www.amazon.com/Stainless-Square-Component-Terminal-Railing/dp/B00VS60MYO/
I'd probable use a thin-wall 1" box tubing for the whole thing, screwed into a 2' x 3' x 3/4" plywood. Under the hand supports (at top) I'd weld a metal plate slightly smaller than the wood hand grips with shallow screws up from the bottom. Id' make the metal base one piece, versus two.
