I'd like some design and materials suggestions to make my own on the cheap. I have a good 220V MIG and I recently took a semester of welding.

I don't understand what you're looking for, or how they would be used safely in conjunction with a lift if the jack stand is on the floor with the vehicle on a lift? More info and maybe some ideas would flow?
