Thats what I did. I don't trust those flimsy looking prefab stands. Its cheaper to build it yourself too!

Don't cut it. They don't hold up with those kind of modifications. Sorry.

Yah, those things are engineered to barely hold together with as little material as possible. Just make your own, it's not difficult or expensive.
