Hi everyone. Any recommendations/suggestions on making or buying a stand to get my tub off of the ground? I need to store the tub outside but I want to make sure its elevated high enough to avoid water and wildlife making their home in it. Thanks for the help.

For a little over $100 you can make a nice rotisserie out of 2 harbor freight engine stands. Overkill for just storage but could be helpful later if any restoration is necessary.

I built a cart with wheels, used screws to allow easy break down and storage 6B1DB7D7-386B-4531-AE18-57FF28185284.jpeg

I appreciate all of the suggestions. The bed on my tub has a lot of rust/holes so I'm not sure how advisable it would be to put it on a rotisserie. I'll find some pictures and post them. Maybe you guys can tell me whether I should be worried about the tub getting warped.
