...engine stand today for Hank with the last of my scrap steel. (he may post a photo of it later on)
Welding is getting better, however I need to keep practicing. I was considering buying some better quality steel to make some more and selling them to forum members at pretty much cost price. This would be £20 + postage (which I would imagine should come in at £5 or under)
Just want to gauge interest before I fork out on a load of box section!!!!
Hank - this is where you step in and offer pictures and an honest appraisal of the stand you received today...
Drop myself a pm if you are interested

Excellent!!!!
Also if anyone has any sundance grips surplus to requirement let me know as these can be turned into excellent crank pullers / bearing drifts!

Looks alright that Jim, I'd have had one if I didn't already have a bench mounted swivel job.

Wouldn't mind one of those stands that lift the back end off the ground like racing scoots have

Cheers lads - every 5 compliments & the price goes up a tenner...  Discovered the problem before was I was trying to seam weld it and the metal was too thin, so it was blowing holes. Tried stitch welding this one (on 1 sec, off 1 sec, on 1 sec etc) and it was much better. Stewart - you got any pictures? |

Stewart - you got any pictures? no  think one of the smallframes had one at the scootering dyno, it has like a bar on it for leverage I suppose |
