I'm also thinking about milling some nicely profiled pockets into the stands to reduce the weight a bit. They're ~4 lbs each right now, but there's a lot of extra material in the middle for cosmetic purposes only.
Feature creep... should have had the water jet guy do the weight relief
Water jets can only cut all the way through. I could not come up with a skeletonized or thinner design that looked good - that's why I would be milling pockets and not cutouts. The stands will still look solid.
