      I cant tell you what company makes them but I bought one at an auction and hated it. Rather than just bolting the stand head to the back of the engine like the non geared versions while the engine was still on the lift then attaching the rest of the stand you had to spend a bunch of time getting the engine and stand lined up so you could put the bolts in. I gave it away after the first use.

      What tools do you have in your tool box?
      Not enough (is it ever?). Mix n match of craftsman, MAC, crap on...uh...I mean snap on and some cheapy throw away.

      What's you favorite hand tool?
      MAC 3/8" drive ratchet with a nice screw driver handle molded onto it.

      What's your favorite tool brand?
      MAC.

      Do you have any cheapo tools in your collection?
      Yep...some Ive aquired through trades, auctions, or some Ive actually bought if I knew they would be destroyed (like when you have to weld a socket to a stripped bolt or nut). Bought some cheapy stuff to throw in the trucks to have in case I need to do some simple repairs along side of the road and if someone makes off with them then Im out minimal cash.
      Do you consider yourself to be a tool snob?
      Yep.

      GMC Syclone (currently wrecked thanks to the typical rubber headed VA driver not paying attention to his red stop light...oh and he didnt have insurance either)
