As a fellow mobile mechanic (classics & hotrods) who dreams of having a work shop of their own i'm super stoked for ya! Congrats on having the skills, determination and energy to put in the work and reap it's rewards! It's not easy out there, especially these days.

That's an astonishing bunch of engineering and the red paint and LED lighting give a wonderfully futuristic air. I also like to be safe so huge safety margins are what I like to see. My motto is do try to avoid being squashed whenever possible. Dad was quite insistent about that, as I recall. Happy lifting. 😊

@garyring8306 Жыл бұрын

industrial lifting mage are all rated 10x min safety margin. this is industry standard not something out of the ordinary. that is why this lift has the rating certifications is has meeting those everyday industrial standards. many of the other lift companies dont bother meeting safety standard of industry, they go 2x to 5x safety factor and call it good. this case with all 4 cables in equal tension even if one fails they never experience the "fall/shock" the other cables would experience with a cable in a lifting sling failing to really require 10x safety rating but it is a nice talking feature and price point justification on this lift. not knocking the lift, i will look at one and see how much a premium they want for the build which should be what all companies be made to build to. retired tooling designer, aerospace engineer, Boeing Space and communications div.

This looks like an extremely compelling product given the features and the ability to put this together yourself and not have it be a sketchy mess! The installing gentleman was outrageously knowledgeable and informative. This was basically a perfect video(I still missed the "hey youtube,*zoom* it's Faye!" Part though!), thank you for sharing and congratulations on such a cool addition to your shop!

Wish I was close to your shop. I'd bring out my 4agze to be torn down. The head had 2.5mm valves installed with the stock valve seats. I had no money at the time and had to throw the head on my engine. I wired up my megasquirt v2.2 in a day tuned it the next and drove 350 miles on the 3 day to visit my parents. To much time has passed and my passion for motorsports has changed a bit. But my love for the AE86 in my garage is still there. Keep kicking butt! You're awesome!

Hey Faye, that thing is awesome. I’m so glad you got it but I’m even more glad it’s super safe. Tony was Great love watching somebody do something they know so well the only thing I can think to add and Tony probably mentioned it off camera maybe you could mark out The posts exact locations so if you do move it, you can put it back exactly where it was to maintain a perfect level although if the floors fairly consistent, they may not be necessary. and the panning shot underneath the A91 was pretty epic. Reminds me of the opening scene in Star Wars a new hope really well done. Have a great one.🐔🐔🐔👍

@FayeHadley Жыл бұрын

Great question! I actually did ask him if it needs to be readjusted because of my floor being not very level, and I included his response (but not my question) in the video. Basically, I would need to roll into a giant hole in order for the lift to require a readjustment. Just regular discrepancies in floor evenness would not cause any adjustment need so marking the floor would not be necessary. And thanks for the kind words 🙏🏻 That was Brandon's drone work!!
