We never had the luxury of a blade fold kit.  Just took the blades off and put them on the wall or floor stand.  Technically, you aren't supposed to fold the blades without the proper kit and supports.

It's more of a pain in the *** folding them than it is just taking them off. Once you get the technique down, it takes 10 minutes with 3 people.

Technically you need an engineer to do it as well.

We use folding racks for parking them in the winter. Takes less than 5 minutes to unfold it.

I remember Great Slave having a “home made” rack made from plywood. It’s was actually a really nice design. Maybe someone on here is still up in YK and has access to a photo or even better the plans to build one.

Check with the Highland bases. They may have them for sale.
