Lower half of an engine can. With a little work you can even run one there.

I just made a stand for a multifuel. I used 4x4 steel tube as its what I had on hand. The front was a piece cut to 36 inches. I welded a 13" piece on top of that. Then drilled 2 holes 5.25 inches apart. The front motor mount bolts up easy. The rear was a tad more involved. Again a 36" piece of tube. Then I cut 2 6" tubes (I think 6" I will double check this week.) and welded them standing up to the 36" part. Finally I welded some .25 thick bar stock 2" wide to the top of the 6" pieces. I will have to get lengths on those later, I can't recall right now. Pics will accompany the measurements. The motor sits rock solid!
