Using some 1″ square and angle stock, along with some 2″ I.D. tube, the following jack stands were built.

Cutting the 2″ pipe – this will be used at the top of the stand to accept the axle that it is supporting.

All of the parts cut, ready for some welding.

 

One stand welded, now on to the next.

 

After cleaning up the metal with some scotchbrite pads, 3 coats (perhaps it was more) of some black Krylon paint was applied.

The finished product – ready for use in the hangar!
