I really like your stand, very little surface to collect debris and still very stable.

Thanks DaveH and ETC57. The 4x6 Bandsaw is one of the tools I thought I didn't really need. I've found that I use it all the time. My saw had the usual flimsy stand which is actually quite dangerous. I was moving my saw soon after I got it and it tipped over almost hitting me as it went down. The fall put a nice dent in the motor housing. I decided to build a better stand. I wanted it to have a higher working height, to be very stable, and easy to move around. One thing that I would do differently is I would make the chip tray bigger. I used a cookie sheet and although it catches most of the chips, it could be a little bigger.
