This will be to transport it to and from the Machine Shop
Thank in advance.
Been gone a long time but I am back now.

It was not a stand just a way to move it around the garage. Ir had no center and was high enough that the oil pan did not scrape. If you can weld, I can't so mine was out of wood.

Recommend you assemble with deck screws not nails though. Use a 3" wheel or bigger, the little castor are difficult to roll on uneven surfaces.
