Default RE: Engine Stands?


ORIGINAL: dick Hanson

here are two types -that yellow one above is sure nice!
I designed th big one so all running could be done standing up and walking around it -
after a while, standing bent over to hold things gets really old . The table on the iron one is about kitchen counter height.
Dick,

I like the second one, very nice. What wood did you use? It looks like a hardwood of some sort. I was thinking of something similar, but not such nice materials. I figure good old spruce 2x4's and so on should do the job for me. I assume you just add weight as required to stop it from moving around? I like the counter height top, I am old enough to not appreciate being bent over tinkering on toys anymore.


Thanks,
Mark
