The best part of the Rainman Ray series is the Wife Unit videos. So calm and reassuring. I’m sure there were moments of panic. But you do such a phenomenal job of relaying the sense of what is actually happening in the shop and in the office. You make the view not only see, but feel like you’re right there with Ray, Lauren, and the whole team. Thank you for bringing us along on your journey. Go continues to bless you and your family as you travel down your path. And the office is looking better and better. Little steps like the flooring and the plumbing may not seem like much to some … until you have to live them. So happy for you both as your work spaces show continual improvement. May the blessings continue!

Any lift is a used lift once it’s been in service. Sometimes we have to do things in a certain way to accomplish our goals. That may involve buying used. And he did say that he’s replacing it with a new one. I think he’s in a better position to do that than when he was starting out.

Thank you for the followup on the first video from Ray. I can say from experience that at times some get complacent about the weight a hoist suspends in the air. It's so good to know that everyone always has safety on their minds and can react properly when something goes wrong. I have personally seen vehicles come off a hoist, not a fun sight - needless to say what the customer is going to think about it. So glad everyone is okay. Thanks again, Lauren. And also for the followup on the office updates too. Looking good in there!

I watched a vw bus fall off an old style hydraulic lift: in front of my parts window. No one was hurt: but the mechanic was so embarrassed since he caused it by jacking up a shock while the bus was on the lift. It lost balance and just slide off onto the concrete floor on its side. Took our body shop almost a month to cut off the roof, get the new part, and then weld in the new one. The bus was brand new. Oofta. Ray did good here: not a scratch on the jeep.

Have similar lifts that have done this. You cant leave the cables ynder load. But have noticed Ray is good to keep setting them on the stops. The way the cable is crimped is the issue. It will eventually will work out. For a quick safety indicator its pulling out,a spot of spray paint will show if the joint is pulling out and a five minute check each month

Just something to think about. What if you put in a wall dividing the toilet from the sink with a door in the wall. That way, if someone is on the T then the sink is free to use by another. The wall could be made half thick to save space. The door could be louvered as well to keep fresh air flowing. Are yeah gonna put in a "poop gas" fan too??? You could also cut into the wall about 38" up next to the toilet to put in a recessed shelf for extra TP and toilet cleaners. Oh, and a TV on the opposite wall of the toilet. Recessed of course. BYE!!!
