Default Paint Stand, cheap and easy

I thought I would share some pics. of a very inexpensive paint stand I made from 1-1/2" PVC pipe. I was unable to attach a picture so I put them in my gallery, just click on my gallery below

I built this in about 30 minutes and it cost less than $10.00 for materials. Installing the upright at an angle backwards keeps the fuse weight centered on the the upright and also makes the fuselage level on the stand. The bottom legs are three feet in length to keep it from tipping forward. It works great!!

Also, the upright post is attached at the bottom with a 1/4"-20 bolt so that the upright can be removed for easy storage. You end up with two pieces that can be stored flat against the wall of your workshop...Gary[8D]
