Excellent. Wish I had one!
But you got me kinda nervous putting that thing up in the air leaning over like that! You might want to bolt a piece of at least 2x2 angle across the front hanging out the side 3 feet or so. That would reduce the risk that the whole table will go over. May not be a real problem, but it sure looks worrisome!
TQ

R.I.P
TQ it is under control. When using the hoist i strap the bike down with four corner straps. Sitting the way it is on the hoist, the bike is as secure as when sitting on the jiffy stand on the ground. I said that the hoist weighs 400lbs, but I bet that it weighs closer to a 1000 lbs. The sissor arms are 1 inch thick, the deck is 5/16" and all the frame is 5/16". The bike won't move. I have a Rampage bike lift in the back of the truck for taking the bike to Florida and I am very careful how I strap that down. The first time I loaded the bike on the Rampage one of the S hooks broke. No damage, the tire cradle held the bike from tipping but now
I use the best straps that I can find and lots of them.
