after that tip of the cherry picker at pep boys @ 119.99(i bought one)i made my own engine stand-made it much stronger than the one in link but the info on making the adjustable head was handy-
am now making load leveler-i know you can buy this stuff cheap but i enjoy making and metal is no cost (access to scrap)and mine are much more heavy duty--anyone else have links i'm interested :p |
