Each stand includes a top rail pivotally connected longitudinally with the respective ends of the stand and vertically movable at one end to form a horizontal or inclined plane for supporting a joint of pipe when horizontally disposed thereon transversely of the stands. Each stand further includes, at one end portion, a normally depending arm member vertically movable at one end portion between the plane formed by the top rails and an inclined plane slopping away from one end of the stand defined by a pair of skids connected at one end with the respective stand and extending at their other end portion toward a horizontally disposed pipe rack adjacent the surface of the earth for receiving a joint of pipe from the top rails and lowering and depositing the pipe joint on the pipe rack.
