I'm waiting to hear back from the guy, he posted it 16 hrs ago so it may have sailed.. If I get it though I wouldn't be able to set it up for a little while anyways..

As promised, i just whipped it up.
Height is up to you, same with lower shelf, also you will need one additional 2x4 to put accross the back at an angle from lower left to upper right as a rack-brace(keep it from wobbling)

Cool , it's so simple, I figured you could have everything cut at Home Depot or lowes, I'll enail you the exact lumber list if you want, you can print it? If you don't have a power drill you could rent one for the day or borrow one?? This stand will be very basic, very sturdy, and easy to wrap and add doors to later if you want! I wish I lived closer r cuz I'd bring you all our cutoffs and you could build 15 of these for freeeeee
