What do you use to hold an engine when you’re working on it?

Assuming that you can’t leave it in the bike while working on it. I have two motors now. So I’m wondering what kind of rig I can use for holding an engine while I’m working on it. It’s not a problem if I work on it on it’s side. But I’m not sure if that’s going to work throughout the whole process.

If you’re handy with a welder you can build a jig.

Me? I just put it right on the workbench and don’t use anything to hold it. If it rocks around I just wedge little blocks of wood under the sides.

My typical workspace looks like this:
