Making Hydraulic Lift Table 

Perfect work. It helps to keep the workers to hold their bodies in an ergonomic posture. Definitelly will build something like this. Thanks for sharing this know-how.

I made something pretty similar about 20 years ago for a friends dad. For work he reconditions classic car engines in his workshop. He has a 4 foot high 3 shelf racking running all along one wall. That's where the customers engines are stored while waiting their turn to be stripped and rebuilt, Or just waiting for the customer to come and pick the rebuilt unit up. Even in his late 40's he could still humph some pretty hefty engines onto that racking by himself, But age was creeping up on him. What I built used the same parallel links like you made, But had a drop step on the end that was big enough to pull an engine onto from the bottom shelf and move to a middle shelf so he could spin the table around and then drag the engine onto the main table section. I made large brass bushings and used ground rod (Cross drilled at the ends to take retaining pins) for all the pivots, And the ram came off an old engine hoist to lift the table. Worked bloody well considering it was 90% made of scrap metal I'd scrounged from work. :) In those 20 or so years I've only ever been asked to take a look at it once, And that was because with about 15 years of constant use it had worn all 8 brass bushings so much that the table top could be rocked 4" side to side on the slop. I made some more bushings, fitted new ground bar stock and added some grease nipples this time around. :D My mated dad will be hitting 70 in a couple more years, And when I asked if he had plans to retire any time soon I was told "Yes. When I hit 70 I've decided that I'm going to take life a bit easier........ So I won't be working on the weekends anymore". LOL ! Blokes a feckin' legend !

Absolutely a great build!!! My suggestion is to add a security stop in case of the hydraulic jack fails once extended

Nice build, my only critique on this project is the use of all thread for the 4 pivoting pins. Very nice craftsmanship!

Useful ideas and great work. I have an old heavy duty chair recliner motor and gear im thinking of doing a similar thing with. It can lift me up no probs so should be fine for mowers and small engines etc. I was wondering how to do a parallel lift but this has sent me off the right way. Nice project for me and good ideas (casters etc)

That's Amazing! That's something your always needing in your workshop specially when you have many projects that require up and down movement. 👍😎

Really like your videos especially the start with the music and can still hear the machines and workshop noise. Seems like you've got the perfect mix for me at the beginning.

Depois de um excelente trabalho desse ganhou mais um de vários escritos.Muito obrigado por compartilhar seus conhecimentos.

*Watching it over and over again still feels good, thank you channel*

I'm a big fan of bringing the work up to a proper height to do instead of trying to bring your body to the work. This is a really strong design I appreciate.

I like these build videos that rapid speed the simple stuff. Always interesting. The workmanship is professional. Never seen this particular interesting design for a lift table. The frame is heavy duty for higher capacity, but I still rather go with a more traditional scissor design lift. Would like the table to lower closer to ground.

This is my first year of welding and I just realize I am very far away from this kind of welding but ur job it's freaking awesome

It is a great project. I hope it did as much fun building it as I had waching it. I would upgrade it in the future with a motor. It looks like it takes a huge amount of pedaling to completly lift. It is definetly a very useful thing in anyones workshop. Tks for sharing.

Awesome and inspiring project. Fantastic production.

Spectacular, great design and perfect execution, congratulations.

I can see air added to the manual pump. 👍👍AWESOME BUILD!!!

Awesome build! Also you can use a power steering hydraulic pump to power the ram by electricity. That would make even more useful!:)

Congratulations....!! You built a great table. I love it. Thanks for share. Greetings from Cochabamba, Bolivia.

Nice,I found this video so relaxing to watch for some strange reason.Thank you.

Wish I had your skills.amazing project! I'm wanting to build a primitive lift table for lawnmower repair.

Ok I admit that was a lot better than i expected, happy i stayed till the end, thx mate

This great! Video up to your usual high standards. Thanks for sharing.

Сколько смотрю канал, столько восхищаюсь такой работой! Ты большая умница 👍👍👍

Inspiring work!

Excellent build, I love it and I'm going to build one myself. I think the only thing I'll add is some sort of safety ratchet mechanism for just in case the hydraulics fail especially if there's something heavy and valuable on it like a motorbike.

Cool Build. This Table really goes high.

That's magic dude, great job. Thanks for sharing.

Espectacular!!!!!! Me gustó. De verdad que si.

epic man , once i get a garage or work shop, this is def on the must make list, my lower lumbar loved it

Excellent! Beautiful job!

Great engineering. Fantastic job.

Excelente mesa. una muy buena herramienta para trabajar. Lo Felicito Saludos desde Venezuela

Great engineering bud. Very impressive. Your welds look like you may have your polarity backwards in your mig. Welds look like they aren’t penetrating very well. But amazing job and keep up the good work bud!! Love the designs

Enhorabuena haces cosas muy útiles. Eres un gran profesional un saludo

Great build. Consider linear actuator to hold height or stop points

Super nice build!! looks truly professional

keep making them and i'll buy them. nicely built.

Parabéns pelo excelente trabalho e capricho !!! Ganhou mais um inscrito para o canal ! Abraço do amigo do BRASIL !!!

Nie rozumiem jak można dać łapkę w dół . Robicie super rzeczy które są inspiracją dla wielu.

Super kanał i super nowy kolega. Dzięki za pomoc👍🍻

Very impressive work. Well done and Im now liking this orange color

excellent video. I have the metal frame of a recliner lift, was wondering what i would do to mod it to go straight up vs up and tilt, and this shows the answer to the problem. won't need to change much at all, just where the lift motor and screw attach and toss a table on top.

Brilliant solution especially for light ev battery removal and installation.

Suggestion: Mount a switched motor with a cam on it the operated the pump. Very nice build in many ways. Excellent workmanship.

Great work ! Thanks for sharing.

Man I wish you made plans.!!! I would like to make one for my garage for my zero turn and cart builds. If you make or made plans let me know I can really use one. Wonderful job

Awesome work!

Amazing table ! Love it !

Красотень. Классная работа. Мастеру браво. 👍👍👍👋👋👋🤝🤝🤝

Excelente idea y muy bien construida. Felicitaciones y gracias

Nice build and video. I did notice that the higher the tabletop got the more tilted it became. A suggestion: On the next Lift build you might want to go with a scissor design (X-configuration) with a screw drive. This will provide equal rise on both supports allowing the tabletop to remain level. Again, great work. Keep it up.

Great build. Very enjoyable watch. Only thing I might change is air over hydraulics ram.

Wow! Amazing skill...기술이 참 좋네요..구독 했어요~

thats what i need to build . for my wood shop an asembly table that can adjust to my needs. by the way is awesome table .saludos from tijuana mexico

Excellent craftsmanship!

Pro proficional de alto nível obrigado por compartilhar parabéns

عمل رائع ومبدع بنفس الوقت مع التقنية في الاداء والتصميم

that project is very interesting, i think i would make one for my workshop, awesome man

Very nice work. Great idea.

Amazing build!

Nicely done...clever solution to problems created by hand pump location and damn that's a lot of metal

Nice work!

Very nice build. Thanks for sharing.

The best!! Świetny projekt.

Awesome man, Love your stuff!

Those looked like some sweet welds. But please, use some sleeves, jeans, and boots. Melanoma is no joke. Thank you for sharing!

Great video, epic build. Mahalo for sharing! : )

Great build. I recommend an air over oil hydraulic system so you can use your compressor to raise it with how much time it takes. Then you are more likely to adjust it every time you should rather than bagging it and doing without due to how long it takes to raise.

Man I’d love to have a table like this! Great job 👌🏼👍🏼

Excellent work👍👍👍. Thanks for sharing

Awesome video ! 👍

Very nice! :D

Absolutely love that table bravo😜😜👏👏👏👏🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

Great build 👍😃

Sensacional esse projeto, serviria como plataforma para cadeirantes com baixos percursos com valores muito reduzidos para quem não condições financeiras....parabéns!

Your project is an excellent idea. It's show!

KEWL BUILD Thanks. It's SO REFRESHING to watch a DIY video and watch someone who actually KNOWS how to do proper set-ups and do welding, instead of the usual dobbing. It tickled me. Thanks again!

Der Metaller hat's halt drauf von der Planung über die Fertigung zum perfektem Endergebnis. Einfach super gemacht. Hut ap.

Nice job. Thanks for sharing.

Sweet build

So many processes. The still I have cannot do that. Like it ^^

Very nice. Darlington, South Carolina USA

Nice man! Even the colour :)

Really nice build. This would be a welcome addition to any shop. Are plans available for purchase or did you design as you went? Thanks for sharing.

great piece of manufacturing - congratulations. I wonder if a pneumatic (air driven ram) might achieve the same effect. I have a disability so pneumatic are my preferred mechanism. Nothing wrong with your approach - it is great.

Excellent work very good attention to details.

Sehr gute Arbeit!

Штука прикольная, можно еще полочек по столом навесные сделать для инструмента,, чебы на столе не валялся и не мешал.

That was great,really awesome! I enjoyed every single second of this video. Thanks for uploading and sharing.

Beautiful work, dude! Fantastic! 😃 Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

build to perfection. every single detail. you're genius

Awesome..... Innovation+invention+intelligent works..... 😆😆😆 But i cannot sleep now....😊

Excellent build....nice and clean 👍👍👍👏👏
