I am at the point in my B602 rebuild that I need a shop stand to place the motor on. I have an old three post Aermotor tower with mast pipe. Due to the age of the tower, there is not a stub tower section. The mast pipe is attached directly to 20 foot sections of angle iron, therefore my need to build a stand. I assume I need to include my mast pipe assembly in the build so I can also assemble the furling and brake parts too. Please post pics of your shop stands. Thanks

Waterpumper, I have access to scrap metal doors over at my machine shop. They are 36" wide and somewhere around 80" tall. I built my stand by welding tabs to bolt my top section to. I realize you don't have a top section that is short enough to use. PM me if you want a door as a base.

Meant to take a picture today but was distracted by the lack of oil to the top end and the snout.
