That is a very good looking stand. I wish I could do that well
Here is my take on a stand for the 12Z manual mill. 100% TIG welded for the sake of improving my steel TIG skills. All 0.120" wall 2" square tubing. I have a coolant pan for it and plan on fully enclosing after a CNC conversion.

The casters are Albion brand 750 lbs capacity each.

Yes, my local hardware store has a 4 foot wide roll of that rubber sheet it was fairly inexpensive. I cut the bolt holes in it with a 3/4 inch leather punch.
Absolutely wonderful stands. I am hoping to start mine this week. I sold my bridgeport 9x42 because it crowded my small 1 car garage/ shop and was thrilled to order this little mill to take its place. Too bad they dont have auto quill feed. Other than that the table travel is amazing for the small footprint.
Also, bravo on the patients on 100% tig. That is some serious time under the hood.
