Anyone build a lift table?

[Master Hack]

omething like this, only heavy dooty. l would like to have specs sumpthin like the following.
Lift range 0-36 inches
Weight capacity 1000-1200 lbs.
This is only an example not heavy dooty enough, for my overbuit junk.
This'n is only coupla hunnerd pounds



I have a coupla hydraulic cylinders.
Enough scrap material for a bridge.
"Scrap" is a generic term referring to all metal
Acquired at scrap or fire sale prices including free.
Not to be confused with trash.
We have standards her @ MTL.
Very low standards, but standards just the same!
looks like a straight forward project but tips, tricks, techniques are always welcome.
Heckling, smart azz remarks, and hijacks all earn eatra points.
i'm gonna let dis simmer for a few days. Taking the weekend off to go thrash my junk in the desert

No one but you (in a future timeline, mirror universe). Totally fascinated by the ones that can lift cars. What a boon for the guy who doesn’t have the facility for the old timey in-ground hydraulic lift ”pillar” or the gantry types.

Should change your username to The ONLY Master Hack. I think you should lead the way, be the trailblazer. Every movement needs one.

I'm going to suggest this: No hydraulics, use motors and acme threaded rod. I don't know why engine hoists aren't embracing this idea also, much more control and no threat of the object just dropping.

Because hydraulics are much more reliable not to mention cheaper.
