Scooper wouldn't a normal workstand have been cheaper than an engine stand?
Cheaper, yes; but the jig weighs 100 pounds and I wanted to be able to roll it around the shop floor. I didn't know if a regular workstand would handle the weight of the jig and allow me to easily rotate the jig to get to different parts of the frame. And, you're right; I already had the engine stand and it's on casters.
