I want to build an Outboard Motor Stand to store and repair my 4 HP engine
when needed.
At this time, I do not have any set plan. I would appreciate any tips,
ideas or plans.
TIA
Denis M


I built a wooden one out of 2" x 4" lumber. Holds two outboards but is big
& awkward to move around.
If I thought the Johnson stand in this ad was as good as
advertized.....................

Why wouldn't a simple sawhorse work for a small engine like a 4 hp?
Saw horse brackets of various types are cheap, and so are 2X4's.
You can toss it if you have no further use for it, instead of storing
it.

I like the models shown at the ref: website. The ideas are great. Make I
can use an electrcian tube bender and 3/4" Dia. thin wall conduits and have
a go at it.
