Hi all,

We are moving our project plane from the airfield to a hangar about 30
miles down the road. We are taking the engine out prior to removing
the wing from the fuselage. I am looking for some advice on how to
create moving crate for the engine. A helpful local FBO offered the
use of one of their industrial strength crates for the move, but they
would need it back as soon as the move is complete. The crate is a
pretty burly construction with a metal flange that the crankshaft bolt
onto and is obviously built to resist major jolts and spearing
attempts by rogue forklift. What I would like to build is a simple
frame that can support the engine for transport and storage in the
hangar while we work on the airframe. The engine will eventually be
put on a stand, but for the short term it will sit in the hangar while
we fuss with getting the fuse and wings situated.

Thanks for your help.
