Yes that is how it works. Its actually quite easy to do.
Here are pictures of the one my father built from scratch. Its actually much more beefier than the one i first showed, the original. My dad could make anything...Im not kidding. When i was looking at it i found all the parts for a 3rd stand that he also made at the same time. It just needs welded together. Just the base portion actually. The steel he used is much heavier and has brass casters that re-purposed. Im going to weld that stand together soon as its all cut to length and should be rather easy. Ill do the same and find some old heavy casters somewhere...
