    Right where I want to be.
    Here's one example of a scissor jack table.....with many more on the r/h side. I saw one of these vids a while back, and the guy used a jack from HF.
    Very cool. I like the 2nd one too.......don't know how you'd modify to use your hardware though.

    I was thinking heavy duty scissor table. I always like to overkill things. I am not sure how much thoserams can lift?

    I'll bet those rams can lift a lot. There are some pretty hefty folks out there, They aren't gonna make hospital beds that can't raise and lower them.
