Lucky for me it did not let go when my 493 was on it. I had a block of wood under the eng to help support the front but the wood fell out when I was moving it to the corner and it broke. I myself like the one like J-body posted as we got one like that where the eng tilts back a little. And you can see in this one that broke that it did not have the plate with a hole drilled in it and the bar from the plate could have gone into the hole and been welder all the way around like that and been stronger. This stand that broke just had the plate up to the stand bar but the newer one I bought has the hole in it so the bar actually goes through the plate and is much stronger. This is the stand when I had my 493 on it as I was building it. Ron
