hi i am building a motorbike lift for my A2 design project. i was just wondering what size box section you used for the lifting arms? i have got some 80x40mm with a 2mm wall thickness and i think i have heavily over engineered it. although my design is a bit differnt from this as there are only two arms that lift a plate that sits under the sump, so the wheels are free to be taken off
Hi, I want to make a tablelift like yours and I have the same pump in 12V with a 2.2kW motor : what is your supply source ?? because It needs 180A ... (sorry for my english because I'm French ...)
I hope you don't mind, but i would like to ask more questions about your lift. What is the length of the scissor arms? What is the guage of the steel? Is the top rectangle & bottom rectangle (top/bottom frame) of the same dimensions? Do both frames meet together when the lift is completely down? It looks like your idea of placing the slider tracks toward the center instead of having the track against the inside of the rail eliminated a problem of the scissor arm hitting it when lowered? Thanx
I just found your slide show regarding your bike lift table. I have looked at several DIY lifts and yours looks awesome especially with it being a scissor design and lifts straight up.
I am curious about some dimensions and materials.The rectangular tubing looks to be about 1.5" x 3.00"? What is the length and width? what is the diameter of the initial cylinder you used? Where is the UHMW plastic found and would cast iron rollers/wheels (like used on floor jacks) work in place of the plastic?
@MrLASCOM1 You are correct, the tubing is 1.5 x 3.00. It is 24" x 84". I initially used just 1 2" bore x 12" stroke cylinder, but ended up needing 2. One 3" would have worked just fine, but I think there were some space limitations. You can find UHMW at industrial plastic suppliers. Cast rollers will work, but the plastic was very cheap out of their cut off bin. Thanks for the comment.
hey what gauges steel u use and wall thickness? was it all square tubing besides the base

do you have the plans for this anywhere.
I know I could scratch one up, but its always easier just to run off a plan that works already.
