Not so much about spoiling the car Mark. I'm just getting too old for all the getting down on the ground, and then getting back up rubbish.

The exact reason Tony has a hoist.  Everything gets fixed on the hoist, Nissan, Trackabout, zero turn ride on mower goes up to sharpen the blades, daughters come home and put there 4wds up there too.  When the 18 mth old granddaughter took her little pushcart down for aunty to do a service too , it was a bit small so it got pride of place up on the transmission jack grandad got for Xmas:) cheers rellbell

It has come to the industry and nanny state's recent attention that certain greasy undesirables are covertly buying hoists for their sheds, among other forbidden tools and daring to service, maintain and repair their own vehicles-

Yes, duggie's set-up has provided no small amount of inspiration. I'm still in awe. I got some serious shed envy there, but we don't have the space for something as impressive.......no gantry for me i'm afraid :'(......but I'll make do.

 :cheers:

Hi Geoff,

I dont suffer from shed envy, but you know how it goes, bigger shed more space to stack unused crap in.

I may get around to putting some doors up for the shed one day, so at least yor shed can be locked up.

Enjoy both the shed and the hoist,  cheers duggie.

Yes, selecting the location isn't easy. All options are a compromise of some sort.....
