I've been looking at them... the different designs. 3 wheels, 4 wheels, front wheels close together and front wheels as far apart as the rear wheels. 3/8's ton, 1/2 ton'rs and 3/4 ton'rs. Found what I thought to be purty gud at Knechts for $39, 750 lbs.
Then there's the bench mounted ones. I just don't know (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) which one would suit me best. I guess the bench would limit your work to just that area. And if it were on wheels you could roll it up to the drill press for what-ever, eh? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) What'cha all think? bruce |

Hey thanks JP. Jim just emailed me and wants to loan me his bench mount stand... now I got engine stands comin' outta mah (IMG:style_emoticons/default/bootyshake.gif) both kinds no less (IMG:style_emoticons/default/clap56.gif) I think I will do both! That would look pretty cool in my shop... 2 engines on stands. Someone that din't know me could walk in & think I was either a mechanic or.... well, we won't go there (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool_shades.gif)
