    I can't imagine working on carbs in the house.

    That's an awesome stand. Why not post the how-to here, to avoid a flood of pms?

            This thread needs more attention.
            Carb stands on-line are $90.00 plus shipping.

                          I had one of those before. It was a cheapo caliper that came with a craft tool set from Xacto IIRC. Box set with different handles and a variety of Xacto blades, a small hobby saw, and some measuring tools.

                          Nothing really great, but a nice kit for one of my other hobbies, painting stuff like this:



                          I used them early on for measuring floats, but they got some gas on them and were trashed immediately.

                            Really reminds me of my old parrot stand I had for my African Grey.
