Default Max Jax Laz-A-Boy

I build myself an infinitely (height adjustable) chair to work under need the car talking about creature comfort..

I got a HF hydraulic transmission jack and used (2) creeper to build it.

The chair is removable from the jack incase I want to use it as a transmission jack.

Need to added some working light and tool boxes/trays.

Click to see (below these pictures) the attached PDF files with the chair in it's low position

That's awesome, Herman! If I had a lift, I'd definitely want one.

Might as well slap a bed mattress underneath there and be done with it.


Well done, sir!

Funny that the ad link on the human hoist points to joint pain relief pills. Knowing your market. How do the controls on yours work?

Manual - lift is hydraulic it has back, forward and tilt to either side by means of turning a spindle. I think most of the time you'll only be using the hydraulic lift variances from time to time.

With the adjustable head rest it sure feels comfortable I'll be adding some tool boxes/trays , magnetic holders and adjustable work light as well.

+ cup holders

I imagine so.



Saw that on Invention USA a couple weeks ago - they were trying to get the price down to around $1K.

How much did it say theirs was? I didn't see a price on that video.
