Cheapo Crawler Stands out of Corn Hole Bags

[MAGNUMB]

Was sick of spending $20 per stand and found this works even better.
You can order these in any size by request and found 3.5" to 4" is about right. Fill them with dried corn, beans or rice and hot glue to seal them up.
Makes a solid and cheap stand. Need about 3 per crawler and they get them out fast.

Another thing that works great is yoga blocks, which I've seen as cheap as $3 for a 2-pack (Crap-azon). Each block can be cut (I'd recommend using a band saw) into 2-3 pieces, in the direction of your preference. Also, depending on what direction you cut them, they can be used for a variety of vehicle types, from crawlers to bashers, from 1/10 buggies to TCs. Cut a 'V' into a single block, and you can even support (tires not touching the "ground") an X-MAXX.

It does offer a lot of flexibility. Ended up filling up some of them all the way and others about 1/2 way so i can adjust the height. Bought them at 1st in the regular 6" inch size and a little too big for display, but good size for a stable base for wrenching on.

My cheap RC stands of choice are made from stock axial tires/wheels I turned into fridge magnets a while back, and Simpson steel 4x4 post bases I took home from work!

You may need to actually put a chunk of 4x4 in there for taller trucks... :lmao:
