I have my Evinrude 70 home from my scrapped out houseboat but, I have a new issue to deal with. This engine is pretty big and heavy and just dewarfs my current engine stand. So, do any of you have a good engine stand design for an engine of this size and weight? It has to weigh about 300 lbs. I have all the tools to fabricate something but, before I get started; I figured I would get some expert advice on what is good and what maybe isn't so good.

Anything you folks can offer up would be greatly appreciated,
Cameron
 
Awesome, I have lots of aluminum salvaged from my house boat so I think I will weld up an aluminum version of this stand with larger wheels so I can move it in the gravel driveway. I saw one somewhere on the web that also rotated for maintenance but, I guess you would have to know the CG of the engine so it would rotate without too much effort.
