Good evening, does anyone have any recommendations for a bench mounted engine stand, I don't have the floor space for a floor mounted one. The main aim at the moment is to allow me to clean it all up, degrease and paint it. I was thinking this might be a good buy https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Fully-Ad...829138?hash=item3b31198f52:g:iPEAAOSwWBJXA39w
Easy to make something up like this... https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Ducati-E...314330?hash=item2f3832c55a:g:9oEAAOSwHbld66fY
There was a guy [Hauge] on the 851/888 forum that had about 20 bench mounted stands made about two years ago. They were designed so that you could split the cases and rotate the engine. You could ask on there to see if he has any left. http://www.ducati851and888.com/showthread.php?1155-Engine-stand/page7&highlight=stands
Here is one in box section 50x50x3mm 360° rotation on zz bearings with lock pin flat pack type when not used slip under the bench with a set of trellis and bevel laser cut engine brackets in 8mm steel made in UK Mike
A spendy little number https://www.ducati-kaemna.de/motorstaender-montagestaender-aluminium-alle-ducati-motoren.html
Whooly dooly, big money for what they are. I picked up one of these on a 40% off sale for $70aud (40quid): Dicked around with the mounts (cut and rewelded) and it’s a lil’ beauty:
Why complicate things. These do the job, are really easy to make, and don't even need to be as complicated as mine.: Nasher
Uk I make them to order 360 rotation with lock.pin 3 bolts all bolted up to use fir trellis or bevel brackets
