Thanks! Always like getting suggestions, thats why I post it on here, I can't think of everything thats for sure.
I'll be curious to see how it behaves over time. Currently very rock solid I can jump/push all over it with very little flex, but that will change with my top plate on and a bike.
For reference the pivots are all 5/8" alloy steel shoulder bolts through a Oilite Bushing rated well over the capacity of my floor jack (which is 3 Tons), but I definitely never want to see a bike fall off of this thing because of a design failure!
Yep that's the plan! Planning on mounting casters to the side of it so it can be flipped up and carted around!
