Malcolm Fisher Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 I'm not sure what you need, but there was an article some time ago in , I think, RCM&E which used a Black and Decker Workmate as the basis.For me, I made my own "wheelbarrow" which incorporates my flight box and model support/restraint as I don't like kneeling on the ground to start my models and I prefer wheeling to carrying from the car park at the road side to the pits area a few hundred yards away. It also dismantles for easy transport in the car. I'll send you details if you like Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flytilbroke Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 There is an article on a luxury stand in May issue rc ModelWorld. Cost £125:00 with lots of add-ons available:I modified a basic (£10:00) workmate by making a suitable top and adding model tie-down straps for safety. Extra weight can be added at the rear if using largish engines Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alistair Taylor Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 You could very easily improvise one from a £5 Ikea pine folding table. These are still a bit low, but are robust and lightweight.Alistair Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
