I guess this would fall under the jack classification?

I never used the lift again for the bikes...it was just overkill to do so... All services are done with just the jack (that is what I voted for in the poll):



Or now this:



I am guessing that as I get older I would want to work more and more at a more comfortable height... maybe by then there is less sh** in the garage and I can get a table... or it will not matter since I will be riding a trike

Both. After a year of saving I finally got a table.

Even with a table would you not also need a jack at times when the tires need to come off the ground? I also have the Craftsman jack and while it is nice, I would prefer to get the work up closer to table height to safe on the back pain. So I guess I say both!

Both.

I have an Atlas 1500 lift, a yellow Craftsman pro, and a BlackJack.

The BlackJack gets used mostly when the bike is on the table.

I REALLY like working on **** at eye level.

I often dream of having a lift table. But no room in my over crowded man cave, so I make do with a HF jack....It has served me well for cleaning/maintenance and my cam swap.
