I used 1/8-inch, possibly 3/16...what ever I had laying around. I think 1/4-inch would be real overkill for this application, and just more work to move around.
But then, with a bad back and knees, I try to keep things light.
Okay, here's a pic of the dirt simple stand I made. As you can see, one weld to make the 90 at the top and one for the jack towards the bottom.
Having a jack is obviously optional, but it does make things easier and more controllable.
If you have the patience to look it up in the SEE/HMMH/HME thread, there are photos of a simple one I made maybe a year and a half ago.
It has two welds, but if not incorporating a trailer tongue jack it would've only been one.
