Hi All,
I found this engine mount on the web.
It is the simplest I have seen and very reasonably priced.
Unfortunately, it is in the UK.
Does anyone know of a US supplier?

Looks like that could easily be made with some supplies from a local hardware store. Ingenius indeed! I'll have to print this out and build one.

Speed Demon,
Look like you need to make 3.

Really looks like a nice piece of 1/4" aluminum flat stock and a few bolts and a tap set would do the trick. Oh yeah...a nice mounted vise to do the bending.
Really... Id say less than 5 bucks to make.

I know this piece of flat bar is more than 12 dollars. But that would make half a dozen of these things! Lowes does sell it in shorter, cheaper lengths.

Yeah, they would be easy to make;
even easier if my brother hadn't sold the milling machine!
I made a real nice one years ago with a soft mount.
Unfortunately, I have some 4-strokes that won't fit on it.
I'll get something going soon.
Good Luck,
