But I'm serious - from working under the instrument panels of A-4K Skyhawks to installing a LOT of computers to lying on boulders creating images to ... servicing my PCX. :)

Alrighty, I took the bait! :D I See what you mean. That's a beautiful photograph! How's the back feeling these days?

Back is pretty good for the most part thanks - still not getting any younger though, unfortunately.

Thanks for the kind words about my photo - there's a bunch more of mine here if you like my style: http://www.pbase.com/cjsouthern/gallery/scenery

2yous, a bath?, then a nap :lol: I struggle too. That's why I use my table lift with 2 rolling tool stools, one on each side of the lift. I got tired of moving the one stool around the lift. Easy now...I walk around it and sit on the other. Laaazzy :oops: Works!!

Another lift idea/solution but costly from Aerostitch (they do run sales) If you're skilled you can improvise or just make one like this yourself. Add side trays, mat, ramp,....whatever you can imagine, you can make happen ;) Who said Cup-Holder? :lol:

EasyR what say you to that? ^^
I did get a rolling stool after you recommended them. Fantastic. Use it a lot around the house too. Decorating etc. I can’t get a lift as that would mean one less bike in the garage due to lack of space.

Thanks all - some great ideas there :)
I'd like something that can be taken apart for storage, on lockable wheels so I can load the bike onto it with a ramp but then move it around, and such. Lots of ideas to ponder from old (WN's find) and new posts. Ta!

Many thanks for the kind words!

The "water effect" comes from using a long exposure - tripod is essential for those.

The pleasure is all mine - thanks for taking the time to look.

They're all for sale by the way (it's a trivial matter for people to get them printed at their preferred local printer in this wonderful internet-connected age).
