Default Hardtop stand, any DIYers?

Just wanted to see what you guys have come up with. I really don't want to hurt mine, and sleeping next to it is not comfortable untill you have had about 10 beers. Thanks

alright I am making mine out of 2X4's. there is going to be casters on one side and anti-slip pads on the other. I am making it so you load the hardtop with the cart on its side, then you pick it up and lift one end, then roll it in. Its not that pretty but it should work great. It will use the strikers and rear hooks, and sit like the oem stand. I am afraid to lead it rest on the edges for too long.
