    Maybe put some anti-cease on those threads Jimbo, else you'd be cutting them off to get them out when you do decide to remove them. Possibly even some general purpose grease just to protect the threads from the elements

    Nice simple solution, maybe with a round baseplate (outer diameter tripod) it helps to keep them from having the tripod legs being pushed into less hard surfaces and stabilizes them if additional planks or boards are needed on soft ground.

    Who on earth has this much equipment in their own garage?😂 I’m jealous

    Kinda surprised you didn't put some feet on those jack legs. Probably not necessary for use on the concrete, but since these will last forever I think I would add some feet for future uses.

    Jimbo, you are awesome. I am getting ready to retire in 2 years and I am building my shop, I been building a lot of different things for my neighbors and friends (with metal) but watching your videos I been learning a lot more.

    Hi Jimbo,
    these things are nice, and simple enough for me to copy. Thanks for your time and the idea.

    We lived in a camper for several months waiting on the new house to be completed. These would definitely have made it more stable. Great work. As always.

    Nice jack stands! For strength the legs should be triangulated. Small foot pads would complete these nicely. Thanks for posting these, now to dig through my shop!!!!

  • @kevinhornbuckle
    @kevinhornbuckle Год назад +2

    Good design. If you needed to load onto soil, you could easily add a plate on the bottom of the three legs.

    One of the best videos you've made Jim. Loved the initial video opening with you outside and not so much overdubbed audio. The stands look brilliant. Very similar to mobile stage levelling Jack's or the ones used in large mobile/static caravans

  • @sirmalus5153
    @sirmalus5153 Год назад +6

    If you don't have the use (or access) to a lathe for the 'flats' on the threaded rod, you could always weld another large nut near the top of the threaded rod, seeing as the top of the rod rotates inside the top support bracket. It might not look as neat, but it will work ok, given the welds are so big. Think I'll make myself some of these just 'cos I can, I can always make different brackets for the tops to suit different jobs and uses. Nice idea thanks.

    My old camper had the same motorized stabilizers. I used the motorized tongue jack to level the camper from front to rear then would use these to stabilize the camper so it wouldn't rock.

    Good work jimbo! I made some in the past with some round stock on the nuts to use as handles so you wouldn’t have to use hand tools to set them up

    Do you have a backstory on how your shop came to be? Where you started, what jobs you took on early in your career, tool acquisition, etc.

    Great designs, but on any surface but asphalt or concrete, those legs are going to dig in. On hot days on asphalt, they will sink in. Ask any motorcycle rider. Maybe some flat plates on the bottom to avoid the potential. Great job as always.

  • @python3574
    @python3574 Год назад +2

    I would trust those jacks WAY more than the POS jacks that most people sell. A good jack stand will cost $$$. That said, if you're ever going to use those on asphalt, you will need pads welded to the bottom of the legs.

    Hydraulic screw jacks with all its cock out in the open will do that then they leak and become projects. That’s why you should have oiled the screw and blocked accordingly so as to not expose your power to the elements. ❤enjoying your style ☕️✌🏻

    I don't think this 3 legs design is safe to supporta a car weight.
