Hello, the plastic stands are used to expose minerals and fossils
There are three sizes.

I have many and I drilling and threading at times to complete my entire collection.
I think the Babe Bee Acro stunt tank it´s a Frankestein engine.
Engines exposed at wood spars are cool.

That is a very neat way of displaying your engines.
The one at the front is a DC Bee, I have quite a few of those. It was a British competitor to the Cox Babe Bee following the very poor DC Bantam.

Now that is pure genius
Not that expensive either, at 0.80€ a piece. Is the material easy to work with?

Great you have found, the plastic is very fragile , you must make the holes and threads carefully.
Really engines are fossils.

I need a bigger table to take a pic of my collection. I have about 30 more engines to restore for winter.

Drilling and threading plastic
I have had the best luck working with plexiglass (other plastics should be similar) using plain water as a lubricant for drills and taps.
Something you could try while making more of these cool engine mounts.

I thought this a pretty amazing price for a Wen Mac Automite, although it is in a rather rare color combination.

Go to link for stars and bars insignia. Print on white adhesive backed vinyl A4 sheet. I am going to send an A4 sheet for yellow 511 on nose.

Yet I don't know letter size then I made 511 number in several different sizes. Print on clear adhesive backed A4 sheet. Laser print is best. If a different size needed then let me know.

Way overpriced in my opinion though.

Re: who has the biggest collection of cox engines and plastic factory cars and planes
It might take a while but sure I will share with you the sound of this engine is amazing Building this engine and modifying and adjusting certain parts is very pleasant if I could I would do this all day I have fun just as much as with the cox engines
