Made myself a Lift Table today

[cwc]

I had a fixed height table that I've been using with a winch on one end but it's a pain to put up ramps and winch stuff up on it to work on it. I've been searching for lift tables to replace what i had and was almost ready to buy one of the black widow lift tables. A couple days ago I see a 2500lb industrial lift table on craigslist for $400. Long story short yesterday I brought it home for $350. Today I broke out the welder and went at it. Six hours later and a total of $460 in it I've got me killer lift table! You cant see it in the pics but I welded angle iron to the side of the main table and the frame I made sits on top of the angle iron. I bolted the frame to the main table. I made it that way in-case I ever moved I could unbolt and take off the top. Only thing left to do is decide where I want it and bolt it to the floor. It raises anywhere between 7" -45" off the floor. Forgive the quad pic, it was close so I tried it out. Tomorrow the big red hits the lift to start a rebuild. What do yall think?
