Thanks for all the comments and suggestions! After reading all of the posts I've come to the conclusion that what I want doesn't exist. I think that what I'm going to do is buy a quality 1250# or 1500# version and then add some additional material to strengthen it. I would assume that the stand would fail in three ways: 1) the connection at the vertical section to the base would twist and fail, 2) the legs would fail in bending, 3) the base at the connection to the vertical section would fail by bending. I'll add material to address these and hopefully be good to go.
