Popular Post gon2fast Posted May 3, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 3, 2021 (edited) I appreciate the fancy fabricated wheel stands, but there is nothing like building something from scratch. Starting a thread to share ideas on DIY stands. Feel free to laugh and point out my lack of wood working/fabrication skills! good thought, but absolute fail LOL. Oh snap, there is my old Monster that I recently saw on FB with fancy new pedals! Anyway, this was disassembled and converted into a failed attempt for kick scooter storage. After that the materials went back to the scrap pile LOL. Current set up. I have a large stand to accommodate my Sherman and MSP and V11 specific stand. My first builds are now outside the garage for charging (3 total). Better view. Probably a $20 project tops.

Dreygun Posted May 3, 2021 Share Posted May 3, 2021 This is all I do. 3 pieces of 2x8 scrap wood, 6 screws, voila. Does what it is supposed to and also helps for calibrating once in a while 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockyTop Posted May 3, 2021 Share Posted May 3, 2021 I like the design of the first stand. (Blue) I am guessing that the boards would fall over too easy? Add all tread or a block of wood in between and adjust each wheel unit. Then you would kinda have a stand for your wheel stands. Overkill I guess. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eeyore Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 Can't ride it yet, but at least it's got a stand... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Took me 2-3 days to grasp your thought (applied to wrong stand), but it is brilliant! Too bad I have already hacked it into several other projects and scraps to throw around the yard LOL. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea I was thinking that design was great too, so easy to slide supports over to find perfect spot, then measure between to cut a piece for between under wheel to make it solid. Perfect multiwheel parking imo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yuweng Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 After looking at kuji's, vee's & this thread inspire me to build my own but damn, these pvc fittings is not cheap nowadays ! You can continue to extend & make it into a multi wheel stand with different spacing in-between & also different height. Tips : The pedal pillar is the actual weight that sits on the stand not the whole pedal. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockyTop Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 @yuweng Your wheel looks like some kind of garden robot. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use a bunch of self made 3d printed stands now. However, I still have a couple that look like your second pic. SImple low to ground squares made of 2x4 and a pair of 2x6. No pic, pretty damn boring. I use those sometimes as they are set just the right height to allow my KS18's to sit on the stand AND on the tires. Lets me turn it on while in the stands. Those 2x4 runners with movable cross pieces is a great idea for multiwheel owners for sure! Edited June 20, 2021 by ShanesPlanet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
