explorer sport trac vs. christmas tree stand

[Bored_2wd]

Ah, check out my latest creation: How's this for a unique use for a trac? Hopefully I'll make enough money selling these to get some cool stuff for the 'trac. I desparately need tires!

Impressive! Maybe a bit overkill, but impressive.

Did I overbuild it? Darn it all, that always happens when I'm in the garage....

Overbuilt? Screw that! How many people have that lame red and green stand hanging on their wall for 10+ months of the year? FINALLY a stand that you can use the whole year long! Make an adapter that fits in the stand with a crossmember cradle so it can be convertible:

Christmas tree stand in the winter...
Jack stand the rest of the year!

If I had an artificial tree, I'd be in... Nice work!

Thanks everyone. I just tried that listing format for ebay auctions and it works, so I'll use that way if I ever need to post a link to an ebay ad.

Yeah, it's a tad bit stronger than the red and green one you find under most trees. But when you have a welder, nothing is safe from modification.

Hey everyone, I threw another xmas tree stand on ebay, it's closing at 1pm and with only 1 bidder at $1. I'd rather sell to someone who at least appreciate the effort that went into it and the picture of the sport trac on it!

It's item number 230195678211
