You are going to make John a star doing that! Great build!

Glad to see someone else with mobility issues doing what they love, and doing it so well too. I just got a bar-stool for my shop as I can't stand very long. I have been working on getting my shop set up for the first time and have been restoring a few old flea-market/yard-sale planes. Any suggestions from anyone on free/extremely cheap video editing software for a Microsoft PC? I want to put out some videos, but my only camera (a cheap, cheap, cheap one) doesn't have a mounting screw hole in the base, so I'll have to figure out something else to hold it for me while I try to work on wood crafts. I will be starting out with this as a first hobby ever and am on a fixed income for now until I finish college to be qualified to return to the workforce. I haven't had a paycheck since August 2013. So any sincere suggestions would be greatly appreciated. (I am studying to be a middle school math teacher. It is the only job I could think of where I would like the work and be able to sit or stand as required by my difficulties).

Thomas Russell I don't know what version of Windows you have, but after a quick look I found this program. ccm.net/download/download-2289-free-video-editor I hope it helps, but if it's no good, message me and I'll have a more thorough look for you. All the best for your future career, and I wish you well.

Thanks for sharing! This is perhaps the simplest scissor lift design I have seen. The only issue is that, when the table is elevated both legs are under one side, so the table becomes unstable if more weight is applied on the unsupported side.

I was wondering why my ears popped! The altitude :D Fun project Jack!

As always it is a pleasure to see your projects. They are always entertaining and thought provoking. Best to you!

Thank you very much for this build. I'm preparing to build a vertical stack dust deputy project with a 20 gallon eagle1654 drum, and was trying to figure out how I could raise and lower the drum for emptying independently from the lid since the lid will be fixed to the dust deputy.This is the perfect solution! Thank you once again. God bless!

Great idea, this can be useful for a lot of people. I love the design and your filming style as well (keeping it simple and short)

Nice, simple, functional, inspiring. Thank you for sharing

That would make a fancy TV dinner tray! 🤓 Have extra cordless drills on hand, and be sure to make sure your battery is charged! I'm going to supersize this and make a coffee table!

You make the neatest tools! They are useful and look good too.

You are definitely raising your work to a whole new level. Another great video Jack.

Another masterpiece from the Great J.H. Thank you for making entertaining and informative videos

Brilliant project Jack thanks for sharing it

BRAVO MAESTRO !!!!

Cool build Jack! Thanks for sharing. Apparantly, i missed the angle grinder crosscut sled build, which i thot was pretty cool, too. I guess i'll go look that one up now. Keep up the great inspiring work! Aloha

That's a great build. Thanks for sharing.

Another good project Jack....love it !!!...featuring John Heisz....that's cool !!! Cheers, Danny

Nice job mate, love the enthusiasm!

You "elevated" John Heisz "Wood Rock Star God" levels.... ;)

Thanks Jack, You gave me and idea on how I am going to build the lift mechanism for my Dust collector bucket, I have a 15 gallon barrel that I will raise to nest with the bottom of my Cyclone base plate I only need to lift the barrel about 1 inch. I though about the scissor jack concept however seeing how easy it was for you make I am going to employ your concept. However I think I will make a wood track to put inline skate wheels or bearings to ride on the wood track. Thanks Lane.

Come on bro. Now you're just showing off. Awesome build!

Congratulations, a beautiful job.

A beautiful work of art that works great, too. Ma shaa Allah. Thanks for sharing.

cool idea, now I know how those scissor Jacks work. thanks!

Simple effective does the job perfectly thank you

Nice! Maybe next video could be about how to make some crank handle with rod that have larger indentation(so you would not need to crank it for few minutes to raise/lower it). Maybe some handle that would be hidden in table and you could just push it out and use it.

great video, congrats! If only I was half good as you ...

Terima kasih (Thank you) from Indonesia.

Nice simple design. Thanks for sharing.

Cleaver idea Jack! Always look forward to your projects and videos. Thanks for sharing

Very well done thanks vor your Work nice idea , greetings from Germany

I have been trying to get a router lift, I have to build this for me. thanks for the great video and ideas

Wow that is one hell of a stong lift table ,it can even lift John.

Great idea for in caravans & stuff. I also bet tiny homes would love that. You should make garden furniture like it. Like if you stop of @ a caravan site they can pull out all the hidden furniture & set up on site would be awesome if the chairs erected like your table.. Anyways thank you very much really nice pleasant video.

Nice job Jack, I always enjoy your videos! Observation about the glued-in nut: Since the rod is pulling toward the drill, I am thinking it would be stronger to have the nut on the other side so that it is pulled into the the cross-piece rather than relying on the glue to hold it.

Hmmm... I'm pretty sure it pulls to lift, since the distance between the tops of the x's gets smaller as it goes up. If I am wrong, so be it, but I don't want you getting hurt if I'm right and it drops the sander on you.

Thanks Jack, I am going to build a small version of this to lift my router up and down

you raised John to new Heights! (did you see what I did there?) great job and vid as always Jack, enjoyed that. I suppose this design could be modified for a small router lift or similar. incidentally I like the angle grinder cross cutter but I think I'd prefer to stand behind and pull rather than risk a lot of sparks down the front it my shirt! just sayin'. thanks for sharing mate.

This is how I made my router lift and it works great. I put my threaded rod at the bottom instead of the top but that isn't a huge difference. Great video as always, Jack.

could you just use acrylic/plexi as a spark guard with the grinder cutter? I like that contraption.

Amazing! Congratulations!!!

Awesome, the end with John playing on your laptop got me laughing, glad to see we both have good taste in channels..

That's cool! There can be a lot of uses for that table!

sr.jack no hablo su idioma pero quiero felicitarlo por las cosas tan maravillosas que ud. hace soy un admirador de su talento le mando un gran abrazo desde mexico.

Nice job, and hello from Melbourne Australia

Great Video!! How much can this lift roughly? Were looking to make on that can lift around 50 pounds.

GOOD SOLUTION

the best part is at the end: you look like a kid who play with a new toy! That's great!

Hi - great project! What is the maximum weight it can handle?

very good

Is your one side of the table wobbly once you've elevated it? Maybe make drop down support legs for when it's up?

A great idea could be used for another project Thanks for sharing lg Rene

io mi sono iscritto al suo canale perché lei fa sempre dei bei progetti e molto bene realizzati a mio parere ci vogliono persone come lei complimenti e mi scusi per l'italiano ma l'inglese purtroppo non lo so non vorrei scrivere qualcosa di sbagliato lei è un number one

Thanks for the great design Jack! Just one question: what keeps the threaded rod from moving along the nut like a screw, instead of the other way around like you've shown?

Love the project video. Any idea what the max weight you can lift with this? Just curious.

@Jacka440

+TrionAlpha haven't tested for max weight.

I like it

Awesome

To whomever is trying to make it, for safety measure - DO NOT drill anything with your hand positioned directly behind the drill #4:40

unable to load pyclipper library(offset trace outline will not work without it), any idea what could this be? and how to fix this?

I have make similar one but it dose not start up only after l have lifted it up few mm

Hey Jack, I've been following your channel for quite a while, and, have only just worked out how to subscribe !! (so I've subscribed), I love your videos, you put us to shame with your skills, and, attention to detail. Wayne.

I’m thinking of doing this but I want to keep the bottom of the legs the same distance and have the movement be under the top but I need both of the sides to move together so the support stays balanced.

It is very nice 👍👍👍

Good work I want to work like you

thanks for the inspiration.... cheers

Hi Jack How are you? I´m watching always your videos and all them are amazing and practical too. Congratulations.

Great video as always Jack! Also liked the cameo of John. I was thinking that a pair of small wheels on the legs that move up & down would make it function a little better, but I could be wrong.............. Steve

Sapele Steve I was thinking the same thing.. but reckoned they could be added on later if the legs wont slide properly.

How much weight can it handle?

That's cool.

Looks good, Jack. Thanks! (Now.... if it played the Thunderbirds tune as it raised and lowered.....? )

Amazing! BTW, this vid would have been worth watching just to see your angle grinder cutting jig, Jack!

now thats impressive... doc johnny

I enjoyed your video, is the table a bit tippy when extended to the top? Looks like the legs are not very centered at that point.

What did you use to put the nut-shape into the wood where you attached the nut and threaded rod?

Your drill seemed to have a bit of trouble lifting John ^_^ Cool project once again.

I'm love it. Congratulartion!!! (I follow you and already made the adjustable computer desk :)) You can make it with a crank instead of using a drill? to make it more mechanical. Thank!
