ABSTRACT:
A work stand for rotably mounting an engine thereon during the initial construction of the engine, or for repair of the engine, includes two concentric rings which are disposed in upstanding relationship and are mounted on a base. The inner ring is rotably mounted within the outer ring and includes a plurality of axially extending arms which engage the engine. The latter is mounted in a generally horizontal disposition and is rotable with the inner ring whereby access to the engine is unobstructed from either the top or bottom of the engine, as well as along the entire length of the engine. A locking mechanism is provided between the inner and outer rings of the work stand for maintaining the engine at the desired angular attitude, and the engine is mounted such that its center of gravity is disposed adjacent the upstanding planes of the concentric rings.
