Engine work stand

[smokinwheel]

Had a little free time today, so figured I’d make a quick work stand for the Zenoah engines.
Going to do some port work and figured this might work a little better on the bench instead of clamping it in a vise.
Also made a dial indicator holder from an old spark plug.

Awesome stand. Put me on the pre-order as I'll take one.

Wicked! That would have come in handy lol

Used a file and a die grinder to make it...

 

[smokinwheel]

Nice bit of kit ! Love crafted equipment.
I am loving my engine test stand , got all the bits to make a work stand next , as soon as I figure out how to make this bloody scz engine fit in my 30DN Buggy.

I just tossed together a quick run stand to add to the pile.
Old fuel tank from DBXL and a piece of aluminum plate. Just added a small pocket to hold spare parts when working on it.
Nothing special

Looks good bud. This will come in handy!

Updated my engine running stand with one of those pressed steel box shaped silencers , figured I didn't need a pipe on it for running in motors. Takes up less room under the bench now.
Still working on making the scz engine fit into the 30DNB . Making up custom servo plates to get somewhere near the throttle arm at the moment.

That is what I have to use for the run stand.
I have the stock muffler from the DBXL and the 5T that. I don't see the need for a pipe either.
