It does make you appreciate the cost of a high quality motorcycle lift. Nice job.

[@volimoto]

Thanks a lot! Glad you liked it!🏍

Thankyou so much for the plan. Will tried to build.

Selamlar süper bir yaratıçılık güzel olmuş elinize sağlık . Şemayı ve ölçüleri verse idiniz daha iyi olurdu

Respect, i would not trust my own welding. That is neatly done

[@volimoto]

Thanks very much! It’s been working wonderful ever since😎

First off great job man. This is by far the best and most efficient DIY lift table I’ve seen. Any chance you could make a video showing how the Jack attaches to the lift itself. Very interested in building my own, but need a bit more detail. Again amazing work.

Hello! Thanks very much for your kind comment! If you shoot me an e-mail I can reply with some photos or a short clip on the attachment of the jack. You can find my e-mail address on my about page. Or you can DM on instagram too, might be easier! Thanks again!🏍️

Very good work...

Amazing Lift, Very professional work, What is the thickness of the profiles you used? 3mm or more? Thank you.

[@volimoto]

Thanks very much for your kind comment! The base of it was 4 or 5mm I think, but the only reason is that’s what I already had laying around. The legs and top part is 3mm. I think the lift benefits from the extra thickness because the base is a lot more heavy, but I’m sure it’d work just as well with 3mm.

@@volimoto thank you very much.

Super super 👍👍👍

Switch to scissor jack and you can use rotational force instead of pumping. (DC or pneumatic gun). Add locking casters. Cool beans bro!

[@volimoto]

That’s a really cool idea! The only thing I have to figure out is how will the jack slide as the lifting point moves around. Are there scissor jacks with wheels? I haven’t seen one before. Thanks a lot!

[@kradschutze]

Mount jack perpendicular to current direction so handle comes out the side. Angle the jack mounting so travels the direction you need to push. Hard mount (weld) ​Possibly mount upside down so the jack travels up down with the table. Less bending. Caster suggestion was for the table itself to move around when loaded. @@volimoto

[@kradschutze]

Just reviewed again and noted you already have a swivel on the top where jack contacts, you may need a swivel on bottom point but I think scissor jacks for cars usually have mounts with a little swivel already built in. Technically it is traveling in an arc not line, but you may have enough play to get away without a bottom swivel point. I was pondering if possible to reverse your whole mounting to push down from table instead of up from floor? May be significant rework though at this point. Would be sweet from an operator perspective if controlled from the table instead of the floor. Also noted another hole or 2 in the bar where the lock pin is, would allow different heights of work surface. May come in handy with only the investment of drilling another hole. Sorry for geeking out on this but I used to design work stations and assembly fixtures.

[@volimoto]

@kradschutze very good points! I’m liking the idea of the rotational force, aka being able to use an airgun or dc gun! I think reworking to lift from the table top might be a bit too much work, but it’s worth looking into. I have by now already drilled 2 more holes to be able to fix it at different heights😁 - and not at all! Thanks for your input and any ideas, keep them coming! Thanks!

Thankyou so much for the plan, tried to send you an email, but something is wrong with the address?

Hello friend. I watched the video you posted about building the jack for lifting a motorcycle, nice and professional work. I see that you have given the matter some thought. I am interested in making such a jack, did you also post the measurements?

[@volimoto]

Hello! Thanks for your kind words. Yes, I have made a pdf with the plans, you can access it through my google docs, link is on the description of the video. Hope you’ll enjoy the work if you make one and that it’ll serve you well😊🏍

[@yoni207]

@@volimoto Thanks for your quick reply dear friend, I really appreciate it. It's nice of you to show other people how to make tools and all this for free. May God protect you. Thanks in advance.

[@michieldevolder1009]

Great work! The only thing I didn't liked about this video is seeing you work on the ground like that. I subscrided!

[@volimoto]

Thanks! Yes… didn’t really have a dedicated metal workshop area so did what I could. But the lift is for sure making my life a hell of a lot better at being able to work on bikes in a comfy position. :)

[@ridalagouiter6724]

What kind of jack is the one you used

[@volimoto]

I used an old 2 tonn car jack I had laying around. I think due to the angles you shouldn’t go below 2T, upping it a big could improve max height when loaded. Hope this helps! Cheers!😎🏍️
