I’m building an angle iron stand for my 120 any suggestions has any one done this ? I’ll be painting it or sealing it somehow
 
I build a stand from wood if you decide to go down that route.

I have one from wood but it’s too tight under it and I don’t really trust the wood under 2000 plus pounds
 
I have not done an angle iron stand, but have done square tube. It should work fine as long as the welds are good ans steel doesn't warp on you. I had mine powder coated when I did the steel stand.
 
Most use square tubing, not angle. Me I love Russian Birch Marine Grade Plywood. I used it for my 310
