Default Helping hand

Several years ago while needing a hand holding up the rear of the
transmission on my van I grabbed a scissors jack out of my wife's car
and it worked great. Since then I have used it many times and even
made some little adapters to make it round object better. When she
traded the car I kept her jack. Just finished using it to hold a
garbage disposal in place while I tightened the retaining ring....This
would be no great feat except I have pulled a muscle in my back and
have been having muscle spasms for about 4 days. Plumber bill would
have been about $100USD for maybe 20 minutes worth of work. Dont think
the plumber could have done it any easier than this .
