Work Stands

I'm looking to purchase a work stand. There seems to be a boat load of them. Any suggestions

I have worked extensively with the "Consumer" repair stand from Park. I like the clamp fine but the base is of a somewhat unstable design. I would look for something that has a 3 point base or longer legs on a 2 point base for increased stability. That gives you 3 or 4 stands from Park to consider. I would recommend any of them.

You should do a "Search The Forums" feature. There have been several threads about this.

Your question is valid but add a little more to it so we know what you are looking for . Are you looking or a home work stand, traveling work stand, or one that will do both?

Cheers,
Dusk
