[attachment=4154][attachment=4153]heres a cople of pics of stand i built using reclaimed bits mainly.
main frame is old exercise bike, height adjustable upright is from project that got design changed on.
rear triangle is from racer and can be turned 90deg to use for truing up wheels, used widest one i had, will be making up some adaptors for bolting in narrower wheels.
pillow block bearings are for truing up axles on some trikes i built for kids.
