Mine is actually built off of two engine stands form harbor freight (the $30 ones), and many of the home built ones are based off a pair of engine stands.

If you are good at brazing, you can do it, but you would really be better of getting a welder. If you are thinking that your car is going to need a rotesserie, buy a mig welder. It is money very well spent.

The PO somewhere down the line with my car brazed in several repairs. When I had to take them out, I was was cursing like a sailor (and being a sailor, I can curse pretty well). Easier to grind out a bad weld then a bad braze.
