Whether it is a lack or overdose of imagination, I needed it💨 and so did my neighbours😁

it is so steady that I can hold one stand and shake the block of wood together with it. And the "multi-fuel-tank" kinda thing is because the fuel tank from the picture is the only one I have "extra", but it is from my carson dazzler project so I'm gonna need it sooner or later
 
Why so many screws?
These engines aren't Novarossis and they shake quite a bit (unless Novarossis shake too lol). Since the stands aren't screwed in but only held in place by "outside" screws with friction, I figured it'd be the best idea to just use as much screws as I can😂 I have a lot left from building my RC storage

Edit: I'm about to post the vids that I recorded today and you can see the screwdriver walking away due to the vibrations💩
