Engine stands
As I'm getting older lol I like to try and make things easier, I converted and engine stand around 4 years ago and just done another one this week. I use a simple gear box reducer from Princess Auto (in Canada) weld some metal together 
make a bracket and the end result is an engine stand that's super easy to turn the engine on.

Excellent regardless of age, strength etc. Tks for sharing. What also is nice is electric jack stand for trailer. First time I ever had one in over 30 years of boating. The younger years with smaller boats not really a big deal but when you get up in size and weight they are slick.

You will not regret your new engine stand, I love them with having a worm gear set up it can't spin on you and it will stay when ever you stop turning the handle
