Here's a heads-up on a good deal on an engine cradle -https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002KS6FUO/ https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002KS6FUO/
There is a -25% coupon on it today - not sure how long that will be good for.
It was under $80 plus tax net!!
The load rating is a bit marginal maybe at 750lbs, but it should be OK

I got the plans from the site for building the wooden one - I baulked at the cost of casters for that from the big box store and deferred on those - have decided I'll build the wooden one (without casters) as a cradle to support the engine in the back of the truck to transport it home.
To build with casters, it would cost more than that steel one!

Anyhoo, if anyone wants another stand, this seems like a pretty good deal. Just wanted to pass along

p.s. there is also a rotating engine stand - that has a -30% coupon right now, puts that one at approx $140 net
