Lift Off!

New tool for the garage, I've always wanted one of these lifts. I'm really stoked! I waited 2 months to get it, can't wait to start using it. It's a Revolution RPF7000, by Rotary, the last of the US made 4 post consumer lifts. This particular one is THE last US made unit, my dealer got it off the Rotary showroom floor in Indiana. All of the consumer grade lifts are now made in china ...

Congrats. I've had a Rotary for about 6 years now, no problems whatsoever.

I take it you mean the floor, it's a marine grade epoxy.
As someone noticed, there is also a pair of Craftsman work gloves laying there. Y'all don't miss anything...

By the way, did you buy the casters for your Rotary?

I had to move my lift from a shop I rented back to the home garage. Instead of taking the lift apart, moving it in heavy pieces, and reassembling it, I put it on the casters, wheeled it outside, winched it onto a flatbed tow truck, moved it, and pushed it into the new place. Piece of cake, saved about six hours work and a lot of heavy lifting.

Did not get the casters, sounds like a good project for the future.
