Great idea! I'm planning on making some garden storage benches and have thought of using a car jack at each end of the bench for retractable wheels. So in my design the jack would be vertical and have the castors attached to a plank of wood which then pushes down. I think I'll use the same concept as you and make the jack all pivot on the screw thread /axle so I'm not bothered by the movement of the screw thread itself.
Hello @Rob Thomas, Your solution is interesting. It will require 2 jacks if I understand. You can also use hydraulic bottle jacks. Be carrefull, in my design, the jack is horizontal and very low, which does not allow me to use a wrench as I do it in the video because I do not have enough space from the ground. I use a screwdriver when the workbench is the right position. In your case, I imagine that you will not have this problem ;-)
@@bapbricoleravecpassion5303 Hi, thanks for the advice. So yes I'd have two independent scissor jacks at either end of the bench partly to maximise internal storage. I am still deciding what design to choose with my main focus on keeping it simple, minimise water ingress and most important spider ingress and interaction ;-). I believe a bottle jack will need me to cut slots to accommodate the handle so that will probably lead to water/spiders. As I'd be mounting the jack vertically then I should avoid the axle/handle being too close to the ground. Of course I may just go really simple and opt for the hinged "falling" castor design which is then locked in place by a pivoting block of wood. So many options for this!
Bonjour Ricky, excellente question. J'avais pensé soulever l'établi d'une main pendant que l'autre vissait mais vu ma corpulence, j'ai finalement utilisé une visseuse/devisseuse 😅😅😅

Great idea, you could try winding this with a battery drill to turn the screw shaft.
You are right Gary because when the workbench is in place there is not much space in relation to the ground to screw
Very Good!.
Nicely thought out, Bon!

If it on the ground how you will rotate the handle full circle?!!
Thanks for your question. I use a cordless drill / driver
clever !
Et quand le plateau est au sol on fait comment avec la manivelle? 🤔
