"Mini Lift"

Post by Rocky Sembritzky »

I need a little help. I have two lift tables, but I need a mini scissor lift and I am having trouble finding one.

I have seen a few of them in pics on the forum, but I am having trouble finding one with a built in jack. Any help or links would be greatly appreciated.

Rocky,
Look on ebay. You should be able to find one like this for about $70-80. I have one and it works well.

I made my own out of 25 mm steel angle (welding equip required). Takes about 2 secs to lift tank, very stable, extremely portable and it will lift a King Tiger. Happy to supply measurements etc if required. just PM me.

Dennis.

Dennis,
That is a very clever design. Thanks for sharing the idea. It doesn't get much simpler than that! I like the lever instead of the jack screw! Also much lighter and portable than the motor cycle lifts.
Best regards,
Bob
