Custom Stand

After seeing several stands that you guys use, I thought I would build my own. I am proud to say I cost me no money to build and only an afternoon of my time. I was able to find everything I needed in my garage. The metal base was from a broken fan that has adjustabe hight. A peice of rebar. 1 nut and eyebolt. Some metal from the scrap pile. A peice of plastic tube to cover the rebar for grip and to keep from scratching the truck. The stand swivels 360 deg. and tilts up to 90 deg. so I don't have to crawl under it to get to the screws on the botom side. I can adjust the hight to work standing or sitting:)

Awesome idea, looks handy. What is to prevent it from flipping off when it is tilted backwards?? Do the 4 hooks HOLD the chassis?

Yeah, the hooks keep it from sliding off.

The base is heavy enough to keep things stable. Hasn't tipped yet.

I was in need of a adjustment knob for my stand and found something lying around. Reconize it?
