The Shop Gets a Lift

- A subscriber had a lift table that he was no longer using. Instead of selling it, he offered it to me. The only catch is, its a couple states away and weighs in at about 800 lbs. Thanks Jim!
I use Harbor Freight Super Heavy Duty Degreaser in my ultrasonic cleaner.

What a Kind and Generous fellow! The world needs more like him 😁👍👍. Happy for the big addition to the shop!
Definitely agree
Nice to see such a generous deed
So now, when I watch a JC video, I can concentrate on the work being done and the lessons being taught, not how his back and knees must be feeling. Nicely done and thanks!
Back and knees are still good. This will help keep them that way a little longer.
LOL, same!!!
@@jcondon1 Just wondering what brand is it ? Model ?
I gotta agrees with ya man! I dunno for a certainty if Jim is getting any older. But I DO know for certain, he AIN'T gettin' any younger! 😉
@@jcondon1 A wise man once said "let your head save your knees?!" or something like that! LOL That is a tremendous addition to your shop. Cudos to your gracious donor.
the older I get and the struggles with getting up off the floor while working on the motorcycle, the more I want one of those lifts. Congratulations James and Thank you to the donor.
Me too!
Thank you Sub'er for helping JC to continue teaching us a thing or two.
A much needed item for the kind of work you do on gens, lawnmowers and such. A real back saver. 👍
Its becoming more of a workshop and less of a garage every week James. Its a very nice lift and works very well. I did not think your tractor would make it happen. You proved me wrong.
I think the tires were the weak link. But they held.
That was extremely generous of that fellow.
i been wanting a lift like that for over 30 years
Congratulations!! Finally, no more comments about James working on the floor! Hopefully. 😂👍🔧
I will still get those comments. Was just working on one that was missing a handle. Could not get it on the lift :(
@@jcondon1 Nooooo!
To the table donor: What a kind, great and thoughtful gift of the lift table to a very deserving person who will use it to continue educating me and those like me. I thank you, sir!
What a wonderful gift! This gentleman deserves high praise. May God smile on him and his family. I'm super glad you have this James; the reduced wear and tear on your back and knees will pay dividends for many years to come. Congratulations, and God bless. Rev. D.
Thanks, now my knees won't hurt watching your videos.
No guarantee you won’t see me on the floor still. But this will make things easier for sure.
Brilliant addition to your workshop. Its kind folk like the donator that makes the world go round. Happy mechanicing ( and less sore knees )😃😃😃😃
This is definitely a back saver. What a awsome gesture to you and your channel. Who ever donated Thank you. Idea like mustie1 add a electric winch to the end so you can drag up heavy, hard rolling equipment into your table.
Wow!!! In several aspects “wow’s!” Love the generosity, the gift itself and your way and care to load/secure and unload as well the shop visit. Regards from Brazil!
I have a "Handy Lift" and this is similar in function. The handy lift is larger but I never had a hard time moving it around like that. The handy lift is pneumatic and has a huge cylinder under it. It weighs about 400 lbs or so and I move it around the shop easily by myself. I put a wheeled dolly under one end by lifting it and sliding the dolly under with my foot. Then I simply lift the other end by hand and move it around like a wheel barrow. Easy peasy. At one time I entertained putting permanent wheels on one end but dismissed the idea because it was just easy to move without it. BTW that lift will be a godsend when you have something really heavy you need to get into or out of the back of a pickup truck. You're going to love that. I use mine constantly. Also find a 1/4" - 1/2" piece of plate steel a little larger than the top and you have a welding bench and a trans bench too. You'll use that for everything. Meanwhile it's a work bench that very rarely gets cluttered. Your viewer must really love ya. And a thank you from me to him for his generosity! That viewer just changed your life with one great gift. 👍
What a kind generous gentleman. James you have a great following on your channel. It shows us that there is a lot of great people in this world.❤🇨🇦
Hat tip to the generous subscriber👍👍👍👍👍
Two thoughts, here... first, this is a GREAT score - you really lucked out. And second, there is always a need for a larger air compressor...
Nice handy acquisition James! It's going to make your repair life much easier 🙂! 👌 Perfect lift with the mini tractor too! 🙂
I thought i was the only person in the world that thought Harbor Freight was the greatest store ever invented. My wife hates it when i go in there. Nver leave empty handed. I just discovered this video but have been watching yours for a while now. Thanks for the tips. I have fixed my leaf blowr and my weed whacker thanks to you. Keep it up sir.
Thank you!
Jim, who donated the lift table, deserves a big thank you. Very generous of him.
Rance here. It's wonderful to have internet friends who are so generous and caring to make others have a better and easier way to accompolish their task. For certain we viewers will now be blessed with more entertaing videos from Jim. So I to want to add my thanks to this viewers generosity...THANK YOU !
James excellent addition to your shop back saver rite there I will doing same next to my my shop no more bending over to fix riders or push mowers or gens .
4:06 the obligatory cool doggie shot. They love to supervise the operation♥
Nice drive into Massachusetts. I'm in CT myself. Didn't realize you were in the New England area
I am in NY near the CT boarder.
Can only wish I had one. That was a very fine fellow who passed it on to you. HE knows it will get plenty of use. Congrats!
That is a great Harbor Freight to shop in. Was just there yesterday. Folks are always helpful and polite. Went to Chick-fil-A after for a nice bite to eat. Some goodies from H.F. and a full belly. Super day.
A very generous donation indeed and this video will help someone...you! Hopefully it won't pose new challenges for filming "at new heights" and we look forward to seeing your lift in use in future videos.
That is a very generous and nice addition to your shop and channel! I was thinking you're going to want a better air compressor about the time you said you might need a better air compressor. I liked the Harbor Freight trip, you do just like me and look at all kinds of stuff that you didn't go there for.
I'm impressed with that small Kubota. Certainly made unloading that heavy table much easier. Lift tables are a great addition to your shop.
😯 Wow, What A Nice Score... That Was Nice Of That Guy To Give You That Lift Table. Well Worth The Drive. Good On Ya. Watching From AUSTRALIA
I add my thanks to the subscriber also.
This has been a wonderful stage on which we are blessed to enjoy your wizardry!
Ps our north American cousins should reflect upon their material wealth. As contrasted to the deep poverty in which my African friends struggke to exist: I note the stock in the Harbor Freight store and their lack of food, medicines, sanitary products, school fees, jobs.
Your going to love that table James! No more crawling around on the ground.
When using the winch put a heavy work blank over the cable so if it comes loose it doesn't hit anyone or break a window out of the tow vehicle.👍👍
The little Baby Kubota tractor that could @James Condon
Nice! The older you get, the more you're going to appreciate this.
I recently purchased a used Generac with low power and with the help of your channel was able to get the old girl back to full song!
Thanks for bringing us along with your diags and repairs!
Wow, nice gift. It doesn't look like a cheap junky built unit either. We know you will use it and save your back as well. Thanks for sharing.
Glad you finally got a lift Jim. I can't tell you how many hours I spent watching your videos seeing you bent over and struggling. I have built 4 or 5 of those machines using a 2.5" X 30" hydraulic cylinder for thrust but a 1 gal. oil reservoir ,electric 120 volt pump. Nice Tube fan also for donating it. I'd buy him a Kroger steak for his generosity. lol.
I always wondered why you didn't have one of those yet, just watching you bent constantly over made my back hurt!! I have the HF motorcycle lift ( I took it as payment for replacing the starter ring gear on a HD) and use it for all sorts if stuff, not just motorcycles, saves SO much pain in the old back. I had my back cut on back in 2005 and both shoulders done in 2018, so having my work on a table is a requirement at 56.
Nice addition to your shop that furniture dollie is a handie thing to have also 👍
Nice pneumatic Lift Tale like that the wings come off very nice of him to give it to you @James Condon
Fantastic gift to you mate.....All the best from Australia.
I am so glad that you finally get what your knees so desperately need. 👍👏🇳🇱
Oh, and your back will be glad too 😊
What a great gift !
14 years ago I had my front bx24 tires foam filled. BEST. Thing. Ever
England. That little winch you bought nearly destroyed my 'courting tackle'. I got fed up with digging ornamental fir trees out of my front garden and used the same item with a 1000lb rated rope. I loaded it as much as I thought safe - nothing happened. As I stepped over the rope it broke, I felt it brush pass my nether regions. My wife said 'Is it alright'. I said 'f&^$%^ hell' (our version of 'Oh My God').
I was aching watching you work on the floor. This will be a great help.
Very nice gift! Congrats, it will save your back and knees. Thanks to donor!
Very cool of the viewer to make the offer to you Jimmy♥ And equally very cool of you to take us along for the ride♥ Nice to see something a little different here☺
Congratulations on the new tool, that was something you have been needing for a long time.
I am so glad for you. Seeing you work on the floor all the time was really hurting my back and knees. I am resigned to working that way myself constantly.
Nice shop upgrade... a total back/knee saver. Perfect for generators and that scooter restoration.
Very nice gift. I used these lifts for my motorcycles, they are really nice to have and the one you received is a really good one....
You were right, Jim. Very impressive. That’s probably the last piece of equipment that you’ll ever need to complete your workshop, and you’ll wonder how you worked all this time without it once you use it a few times.
That Lift gave you a good excuse to CLEAN and SWEEP the GARAGE . 😁
And oh by the way I think you are a genius! I thoroughly enjoy your videos. I just discovered you about 3 weeks ago and I am still watching all I have time for. Keep up the good work!
That subscriber is way cool. Good on him. You have a great addition to help save your back and make life easier. I love all your cool toys.Much good luck as always.
Morning Jim. This obviously some time ago, as I have seen you making use of the lift many times but what a nice gesture and such a useful bit of equipment from your subscriber. Stay safe and well, love your fascinating programs.
Fantastic... Thank you sir who ever you are...😁
thats gonna assist in making great videos! congats on the find!
Darn.....now I want one! Great back saver. Kudos to the gentleman for his donation. By proxy, this helps all of us!
Your compressor may be large enough. I think its a matter of volume. Maybe a second tank that would hold about 30 gallons with a T fitting so your lift could draw off both? Of course the second tank would always be in place unless you had to take the compressor out for for some other duty......Nice guy, that man that gave you the lift!
yes, very kind of the sub to give you that gift your knees will love you!
Nicely done. And you will end up using it more than you expected.
you're a New Yorker! I noticed the inspection tag and registration tag on the windshield. I used to live in the southern tier, then north country, and lastly central upstate before finally getting out.
Nice addition to the shop James. I am looking forward to see the first generator being repaired on this table. PS: Nice tractor too, I have the 2018 BX23 Kubota, and I love it.
That is a great and very generous person. He is a great person. What a nice addition to help. Fantastic.
Finally! Now my knees won’t hurt when watching you work on the floor! I’m sure many viewers will feel the same. Enjoy the lift and we all thank the generous subscriber.
What a great guy to gift you the lift James 🦘👍
Great addition to the shop!
Congratulations on the new tool! That's definitely on my wish list as well someday!
New subscriber here and just wanted to say with the few videos I've watched, I love your content already! What a score, I've been wanting one of those for quite some time, but man they are pricey. That's awesome of the subscriber to donate to the cause. Definitely will make your life easier and of course your back will be very happy too. Keep up the great work and stay safe.
Thanks!
Nice table James. You will certainly enjoy it 😊
Awesome upgrade to the shop! Congratulations and good luck on the projects!
Nice James a time and more importantly back saver. You have some loyal subscribers because we learn a lot or you jar memory at least mine. Thanks James. Ed
Great addition to the shop, your future knees will thank you. I love my little BX (with Backhoe), they are workhorses!! But Dude, get the hooks off the top of the bucket. It's a common home-gamer mistake. D-rings and chain hooks need to be in the bucket. I had a good friend in High School whose family ran a sod farm. His older brother was killed when a chain snapped and whipped over the top of the bucket and hit him in the chest. The investigator assigned to his death said on commercial mines all pulling attachments must be in the bucket... that way, not "if", but "when" a chain snaps you have the bucket between you and the chain. Easy fix. Look up Paul Short on TH-cam. He did a lot of great BX mods and will show you how and where to mount them.
Over the years I've had numerous contractors at my place laugh at my little BX. But once they see what it can do, 6 out of 8 of them now own one!!
Been watching your vids for a while and most times I’m yelling “get off the floor!” LOL
Grats on getting the lift.
that was hella cool of that guy hes a good dude !!!
Nice addition to the shop. Looks to be in really good shape. However, I'm sure you'll lubricate the slider wheels for the up and down travel...especially the down part to get rid of that gawd-awful noise it makes! :) Looking forward to watching you use it.
I have been lubing them like crazy. Still just as noisy. Maybe a little better. Might need to take it apart and grease it properly at some point.
👍😎👍... Yeah hurrah!1 Awesome addition to workshop,,,
Very nice gift and one that I'm sure will come in very handy.
Nice addition to the shop and thanks to the person that gave it to you 👍
I m glad your finally going to be able to work up off the floor
Nice addition, I have the exact same trailer and I'm really enjoying it also. That lift is very sweet and generous of the guy. I'd hopefully pay it back somehow with some labor or something.
Truly happy for you , i get such pleasure from your videos.
Yaaaay!!! Now I can stop worrying that your back will end up like mine. I had a similar lift when I worked on motorcycles- a real godsend. They do need a lot of air volume moreso than air pressure so until you upgrade compressors you can "tee" in a portable tank.
Those orange straps from HF give me the chills, especially when I see people use them to hold cars on trailers! YIKES
Hi James, this is your knees and back, we would like to thank you and Jim the subscriber!!!
You're doing good things and deserve every kindness.
Outstanding, what a generous gift for you.
Right, James, at your and my age, on does not neet to crawl on the floor anymore. My budget lift solution for equipment and up to medium size motorcycles is a € 750.- high-lift pallet truck (scissors-type, lifts up to 90cm/3ft) with a homemade 200cm x 68cm (80" x 27") closed-deck pallet on it. So I have a perfect lift, an additional workbench, and a handy pallet truck is allways good to have in the shop.
Nice addition to your shop from a very kind and generous guy. Congratulations!
James your back appreciates the new lift table!
That’s a sweet lift . Letting it down sounds a bit like me getting out of bed in the morning , lol
Wonderful! James's knees and back say THANK YOU!!
You are going up in the world James.
I have HFT's heaviest winch puller.
I have only had need of it very few times, but when I DID need it, it was a grief saver.
Thanks for the vid James. Nice addition for the workshop.
Congrats James. The new tool is fantastic!
Thanks to the susbcriber who offered it to you
Regards
Very good present. Better videos better health. Congrats.
Great addition to your shop. As a geezer now I can stop cringing while you squat to work on your treasures.
I have wondered "Why" you don't already have one of these for years of viewing (older YTs). Your camera work, lighting, editing, ...... is outstanding. I just could not figure out why you still work on the floor. At my age (65) that would be almost impossible for sustained work like you do. Now you will have a "Mustie 1" intro which is awesome and you will save your back! Very happy for you!
