Always nice getting new toys, eh?
Nice garage btw! :thumbright:

You all seem to have decent garages come to think of it... miles better than the naff concrete prefab single thing we've got!

It doesn't look like it's very stable,I'd want it bolted down or wider/longer base before doing anything too energetic.

It's plenty stable, cross braces are welded between the base plates. Good thick steel construction.

It's designed to be portable but this will be bolted down. You can extend the base but it's as long an any other full height scissor I worked on.
