Steel Tank-Stand Builders?

[Lunchbucket]

NICE stands guys!

I just picked up a 4'x4'x20" tank w/ a powder coated stand. Stand measures 4'x4'x36". A BIG problem. I can't get this beast of a stand into ANY house easily. What I want to do is some how find an idea of what I should do?

Should I cut it in 1/2 (top and a bottom piece)and have a welder weld an "insert" in to the tubing so when I place the two pieces back together the "inserts" will slide inside the tubing on the other cut piece thus keeping the pieces perfectly straight together and the weight will be straight down on it's self?? What other options would be good for me? Any help from you steal welders would be great

here are the pics of it





I thought I'd put this question here since there seems to be such a gathering of some good welding/steel guys. Sorry for hijacking I can start a new thread if needed

thanks
