Do you roll the cherry picker over the plate...

Yes. Not a powered basket cherry picker, just a manual push-around
lift/hoist. Old guy, y'know? Picking heavy stuff up off the floor is
no longer my thing.

A cool old cherry picker would be nice too:

Nice for nostalgia, but I'll keep my Chiwanese picker, thanks.
He'd do well putting some moly grease on the teeth of those gears and
some lube on the shafts. I oil old chains, too.


The vise below is foot operated, built similar to leg vises. The second
slide is a video. When watching I thought the front jaw insert was
loose but now I think it is deliberate to allow the jaw to stay aligned
with its mate. One could probably do something similar for the leg
vises...

I like the pair on the garage floor much better.
