If you build custom stands like the ones I did I would recommend making the pins long enough to go through the jack points and then drilling a hole in the pin on the far side of the jackpoint and putting a spring clip or some other retaining device through the pin so that it can not pull out. I found with mine that the body was so light it sometimes sat on only three stands and with no pressure on the 4th one it became a little hairy.
