going from egg table to 3 egg outdoor kitchen. Looking for advice

i built a simple table for my large some years ago. I since added a second large and a small and want to make an outdoor kitchen and ditch the table.
My question is, unlike my table where the egg is dropped in a hole in the top of the table I’m thinking about just using cutouts in my build where the eggs will sit without any side support should it rock around. I’m considering setting them on 3 fire bricks or aftermarket ceramic feet like the ones that used to ship with the bge. OR because I’m concerned about the thing being top heavy with the lid open, I’ve considered using an egg nest with the casters removed. The table nest doesn’t look any sturdier then the egg sitting on a few fire bricks.
I use a nest for my small and it’s pretty sturdy but it’s awfully low for my liking. That’s when I started thinking about just using the nest without the wheels in my build and setting it on an elevated shelf basically in my kitchen build. I could do this for all 3 of my eggs (light bulb turning on over my head).
Anyhow, I been on this fourm for a long time and enjoy the experiences people share on here. Any suggestions? I love my eggs and I think if I tipped one over I would be heart broken seeing how expensive these things are.
