. . .I have one of the quality brand 3 wheeled stands and I almost lost mine too.
I use a Harbor Freight 4 wheel stand (2000 lb).
A stove bolt engine sits within the "wheel area" of the stand.
I carefully roll a stove bolt engine in and out and around my garages.
I have never had a problem.
I do not think that I would ever use any kind of three-wheel stand with any engine.
