Default Test Stand

Hey folks. I am looking for ideas ( and photos) of test stands that others have built, for breaking in new engines. I have a new .46, a Saito FA100 and will have two more for the Twinstar that will come soon. I am thinking of 1/4 " Aluminum, as I started off my working life as a Machinist, and have access to a milling machine. I would also like to clamp it into the B&D Workmate.

P.S. Can I make this one size fits all? I know I will have to drill and tap for different engine mounts.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Kevin
