Topic: Hub stands aren't cheap

Designed this in fusion, will get a quote on getting it laser cut.

750 lb steel ball transfer each so 1,500 lb capacity per corner. I think there is diy weld together hub stand kit for $535 + shipping from turtle lab.

Anxious to see the final product, nicely done!

Next concept from scratch, shortened it and made it stout and tried to reduce weight, so more cut time in processing:

Third design from scratch.  This time I set the distance between the center of the hub to ground is 13" / 330 mm radius, a 26" diameter tire diameter proxy.  The transfer bearing contact point is set to the offset of my wheels at +45mm, and there are extra holes to set it to +25mm.  This reduced height while going to an 8" / 200mm bearing width making it more stable longitudinally, while I tried to keep it simpler to reduce cost by -$150 using sendcutsend.com to get a quick estimate.  Bolt patterns, for 5-lug: 105-115mm and 4-lug: 100-110mm. Center bore is 72.7mm to go with my Solstice wheels at 72.6mm, so I can use my hub spacers.
