Now that I am thinking about it I might as well give an update after a year and a half and half a dozen cars

It is awesome. Full stop. The tough to turn handwheels smoothed out after some use and a bit of lube. The two height adjustments per pedestal are critical. You set the weight with the acme thread when you first put the car on. Set the height right and you can spin it over with one hand. The Hydraulic jacks allow you to turn the cars over and set working level.

No more welding overhead with your shielding gas falling away from where you need it, no more sparks falling directly down your collar and into your hair. The quality of my work has skyrocketed with this tool.

Do you have a write up or basic "how to" for actually getting cars attached to this thing?

Get under car, find suspension attachment points, weld up 2" square steel tube until those points meet the rotisserie.

Every car is different. Old american stuff has strong enough bumper mounts to use but anything else I go straight to the suspension mounting points.

The "arms" accept any 2" square tube. Makes it easy to fab up.
