Nice work on the stand there carbymaster ! as I still service the family cars I find Jack stands are pretty handy also with mowers. The other mower stand came from my local mower shop when it closed down which was a bit sad as the boys there were always willing with helpful advise when asked and really new there stuff. The only upside was I was able to stock up well with parts at the right price and I was offered the mower stand free. The stand was made by them ages ago and it's very handy, the mower is at a great working height, you can put almost any wheel base rotary mower on there as one of the wheel supports slides on the angle so it is adjustable, it has a handy tool/parts tray and you can rotate the mower 360 degrees on the stand. The base of the post was bolted straight in the workshop floor of the mower shop so I had it welded onto a heavy steel car rim. If anyone would like to make one please pm and ill measure it up. I think if you squared up the angle which goes from the mower support frame to give it more depth from the underside of the mower to the top of the post it would be ideal for removal of blade carriers etc.
