Yah it works good for my smaller shop lifts 14’ 2500# and only paid 500$. Needs a proper table/platform. The remote is really nice and easy to do cause the controls are all electric already Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Elec forklift for in the shop, not much for attachments yet but wired so I can raise and lower from remote and drive forward backwards. A wood step I had made for another project is the current man lift. Makes getting into the loft without a staircase easier then a step ladder or doing any work...

Well here is mine, no where near as cool as “don long” but it works slick. Figured if I used this I would never try sandblasting with it again cause is was a POS. Just a few mods on a portable sandblaster and some paint to match the shop Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

3/8 snapon impacts in a tray bring the whole tray over to work area and done. I don’t remember last time I used my chromes unless I need the thinner wall. Try to never use a chrome on my guns. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I used various things, stick on zip tie clamps for elec lines, pre drilled and self tappers the zip off extra in the inside of pillar or weld on a nut on the outside then bolt the air reel to nuts. Also magnets on can holders and small hangers and such work good Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
