Wanted - pair of Build stands for Sylva Mojo.

Near Bristol would be good.

Moving house this week so please contact on 07887-565036

If you're quick (and close enough) here is a build trolley for free... looks like someone else has first dibs, though

I built my locost chassis up (with iron block 2ltr engine in it) on homebase/b&q plastic sawhorse a-frame type trestles that were about a tenner.

when it got heavier i put the two trestles under the back and my workmate (9.99 b+q) under the front. not had any problems. and i could still climb into it carefully to sit down and make brum brum noises..

i just used 4 axle stands.

Talkabout Lightweight stands!... As I was building the heavier Viento, I built a trolley / stand out of 75x100x9mm Angle. Mind you it was free ironwork (very locost) and all I had at the time. It will support most things I want to put on it.

im using 3 axle stands, suprisingly quite stable at the mo, the car is practically together,
i did buy 2 clarke trestles but the were way too high and i would of had trouble getting the car off them,
however i would sugest using a builld platform of some sort, like the others have said some cheap trestles or workbenches as the problem of axle stands is that the car sits too low which will kill your back. even i get a bit of a bad back and im only 23!!

Two B&Q saw horses and my engine crane to lift it up and down.

I just knocked up a couple of trestles out of some scrap 4x2 that I found in a skip.....
