Hi to All MEs,

I'm in need of a building stand for my Sweet Pea.

Few years (months) ago I read a very interesting article in Model Engineer about the subject.

Impossible to remember in which issue as I'm far away from my Library.

Is someone can help?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Pierre,
A most useful site is the Model Engineer magazine Index at http://www.itech.net.au/modelengineer
I find it most convenient to select "sort: by Issue" before selecting the Submit button.

Entering building stand into the search field returned a number of useful results.

Hi Pierre, until recently I worked for a model engineering company. We used stands made from 40x40mm angle iron, these were adjustable to cater for
3 1/2″, 5″ and 7 1/4″. If I was building one for myself I would incorporate a “turnover” device.
Regards Mark P.
