For the stand,
I copied the framing from David Grigor from RC. It's pretty easy to construct and easy to frame with some 3/4" oak plywood.

OK, whos got'a oak stand here?

Yup, daatack has the plan!

For a 180, you can frame it up using 2x4's and then use some 3/4" oak veneer playwood to finish it up. As long as you build it level and square, it will hold for a lifetime!
