Engine mount primed, painted, and finished. |
Engine mount ready to be primed and painted. |
It's still level. |
My metal cutting bandsaw. Clamp the steel down, turn it on and it cuts by itself and turns off automatically when finished. |
Still level here. Note the wood base. The engine mounting feet are secured by screws which keeps the legs from moving while welding thus keeping them spaced at the proper distance . I later added four caster wheels with brakes making it four wheel drive. Actually it made moving the engine mount around alot easier. |

Making 2" diameter rubber bushings by drilling them out of 3/4" thick solid rubber. |
