a small furniture mover, four casters, carpeted on two sides, works for me. the engine sits with the mount for the oil filter on one wooden side, the rear of the case seats on the other. as for the stripping, I looked at less abrasive material for my blaster, but couldn't get off the $$folks wanter for walnut, plastic or glass. I'm trying to get stubborn black grill paint off the bikes juggs from its earlier incarnation. I'm going to saturate them and cover with foil or wrap of some kind, then power wash. when its all back together, its a stiff long thin grill brush and a dremel on the lower cases.
