AC scissor stand dimensions

[Watty]

Hi guys...

Could somebody do me a favour and throw a tape over thier AC scissor stand and write down some dimensions for me?

I've just aquired a few lengths of different alloys, so I thought I might make a few stands for the crew. If you could measure the top bars, where they bend, the bottom bars, and also the crossovers, that would be great.

Yeah, I know I could work this out myself easy enough, but this would be a bit easier!

Cheers.

I'll have them tomorrow if you still need them.

Looking good. The only problem is I just can't make out the dimensions written on the pipe!

 

[Watty]

Anyone?

 

[Shonuff]

Sorry.

I thought Boris had you covered. I will get exact measurements tomorrow for you.

Smooches from the states.

It uses 1-3/8" OD tubing and the approximant dimensions are about 38"L x 20"H and the width is adjustable with straps.

Jet-World has them for under 80 bucks.

Bottom pieces are 39" long
Top pieces are 49" inches long.
The bends on the top occur 5" from the ends and are at 40 degrees.
The scissor legs are 17 1/4" long and attach to the bottom legs 3 1/4" from the end.
The scissor legs start at 3" wide and are bent to 90 degrees to make a 1 1/2" x 1 1/2" L shape.

Good luck.

AWESOME....

Exactly what I needed to know...Looks like the tig is going to be fired up this weekend!!

Thanks!

Oh yeah, thanks for the tube OD Chris.

That's the more expensive couch stand. :hitwithrock:

I think he's looking for the stand-up model dimensions.

 

[Shonuff]

Wait . . . do you mean I own two couch stands?

I feel so dirty.

i have one of each, and I think the couch one is better. More area (longer than the stand up version) to put your ski on without the risk of it teetering off one end or another.

You know what... the height is the same for both stands and the width is adjustable, so those might work even better for the stand-up models. :scratchchin:

It seems like my stand always wants to fall backwards on the steep inclined beaches during rough weather. :thinking:

Do you want to trade stands? :banghead:

 

[oxnard111]

I'm pretty sure that they are both the same width... atleast the two I own are. Once is about 12 inches longer than the other, both are the same height.
