Edited to clean up my mess:
Your early version ADS/Braun 810s came with the LF700 stands (can see the paired mounting holes) - these are made of cast aluminum and obviously are more difficult to fabricate. Pictured here on some Braun L810s and early ADS L810s:

ADS F800 stands will work great too and will be easier to make.
Dimensions in this thread provided by @Duffinator:

All are outer dimensions. The bar stock is 1" square, the upright bar stock is 1" x 2". The top back support piece is about 1/12" flat plate with rounded corners on the top and the two holes are about 1/2" in from the tops and sides to the center of the hole and it's 2" x 14". You can calculate the angle from the dimensions given as they may be different from the dimensions given for the earlier (Braun?) style stands.

Thanks for the info on the proper stands. I’d lean going that way. Producing them from cast aluminum would be extremely difficult without the casted pieces or molds. I do however see reproducing them from aluminum tubing and flat stock, to get a very close appearance. Even solid stock possibly, in order to give it the rounded edges which would be nice.
I’m going to sift through the pics and dimensions and try and come up with material needs to mimic the originals as closely as possible. I can certainly cut and modify rectangle tubing to taper down as those do.
Just another project for my ever growing list!
