How stable is it

@AutistiVision

3 жыл бұрын

Well, not stable at all really. Only holds about 40 lbs.

Excellent

For my purposes, I would love the crank on the side, but I don't have a clue to how insert the gears to change the direction.

Some people are awesome! What a piece of class is that!

I started to test it with 2 cinder blocks (80lbs) and it started to break at it's weak spot. But I did do one. The original designer used it to hoist overhead cabinets.

Tell your friend he's one smart cookie! I see lots of uses for something like this. Especially when someone isn't able to lift heavy loads as they once were able to do. Could definitely use it here at my house and I probably will. Neat!

This is exactly what I have in mind any idea how much u can lift with it? Im wanting to build one for my wife. So she can put nock nacks into a loft storage.

Yep, good idea! Wish I had the measurements of wood & location of holes. BUT one SAFETY note needed, be careful of tipping with certain items, I would of made a longer/wider bas for better stability.

Clever + simple! thanks

I don't care what the haters say this is very ingenious. It looks like it served the craftsman's purpose of installing cabinets well.

Joe Pigott This is a pet project. Nobody used this in construction. A step ladder would be far more stable and practicable.

That's pretty sweet. I was planning on building one from steel, to serve as a drywall sheet lifter. This kind of thing, if built tough enough, would have endless uses around the house.

Well, at least it's quiet.

I'm a 55 year old cabinet installer with tender rotator cuffs. I need something like this, but it needs to be motorized. The hand crank is way too slow. Ingenious though.

cool. did you test it out with someone on it, or a weight?

I'd suggest reinforcing the joints with deck joist hanger. Other then that it's just about perfect.

I'm sorry, someone just gave me this like you see it. And he just made it from scratch. But if you try to make one like this, make sure you reinforce it in the weak area I showed.

Muito bom !

That's a great idea!

very beautiful sir thats really very good invention

Yes, but it definately needs reinforcing in the places I showed.

Can you supply the design cuts

Now you can get that giant Christmas Tree you always wanted but didn't get cause there was no way to put the star on top of it.. I'm interested to learn how you reinforce or re build the part that backs up the jack.

if you had not put three fasteners all lined up in a row in line with the wood grain it would not have split so easily

Harbor Freight already has a fast foot operated hydraulic lift table, mounted on caster wheels, Two mounted vertically would go up fast, carry 500 pounds. Yours if clever though.

Hey I love the vid! Can I ask how you made the crank mechanism? Or maybe a vid on how that works? On the lift I made, the screw sticks out and continues to protrude outward as the lift goes down and vice versa. Thanks!

How much load can this thing take ? How much power did you need to turn this thing all the way up. Can one use an electric drill for the lifting purpose?

Hey M.S.! LOL, I forgot all about this scissor lift. Thanks for sharing! I made it mostly from scrap lumber, but did buy a few parts. Put it together in one afternoon, and it served its purpose :-) - E.T. -- PS, I miss the neighborhood.....

***** Well, look who it is! As you can see, it's a popular video. The lift spent about a year in my dad's garage till I decided I should film it. A number of people asked for the plans but I couldn't help them. Sadly it did break and it's dismantled now, but the video shows clearly how to make one. But you made it first and you get all the credit! It just needs a stronger base. Btw, your old house is still in good shape. Hope things are well with you!

@Tripillian

AutistiVision Doing good. I hope the same for you! Totally agree on a stronger base. If I had to do it over, again, I would take my time..... and definitely use a lot less wood. Wood has a way of amplifying every little squeak :-) BTW, great video presentation. You really do show all aspects.

@AutistiVision

+GoatDriver Ram It was only about 80 lbs when it broke the base. If the base were stronger it could probably lift hundreds.

This project doesnt use any pneumatic right? just some screw driver?

2" Metal box section would have been a little stronger, I'm thinking of making a tv lift using 2 electric wiper motors, alluminium box section & a couple of cut out switches. nice idea though.

Great!

It looks like there are no washers on the bolts in between the two pieces of wood. I've made one in the past using the following: bolt, washer, board, washer, teflon washer, washer, board, washer, nut. That resulted in much less friction as it was moving. Even under load it didn't make noise.

+AnonymousWalrus Great idea! That would have made a scissor lift worth keeping. The man who made this one says that he made it very fast in one day just to have a 1 time use tool for lifting cabinets. But it would be great to make a permanent one. Your idea would be perfect.

is it be stronger?

That's an ingenious design, I'm just curious how you would keep it from toppling over while lifting something.

First of all, congratulations. I have no legs after in freeway accident. For me could be the best thing that i have seen since my accident, to do works like before. I would like to ask your opinion to mount an "12V Electric Truck Trailer Tongue Jack Trailer Camper Adjustable 3500lbs Lift" because i use an Motorized Wheelchair and i am planning to do your lift on my wheelchair, controling from another Joystick the lift. I´ll be waiting for comments and once again congratulations.

foxdepuebla No no, as you see in the video, this one broke at about 80 lbs. This was originally designed to lift cabinets into place, nothing heavier. I believe this could be made sturdier to use with an electric jack, but the base where it slides would have to be steel. Be careful.
