Engine Stand

What if an engine stand was built to last, not to a price?

A 650–700 lb engine stand with sealed bearings and a worm gearbox, designed for the shop and as a future product.

Buy once, cry once

Bought parts are the precision ones: bearings, shaft stock, gearbox. Fabricated parts are where the shop's own geometry and machining add value. Material choices follow what the shop can actually do today, not an idealized spec sheet.
