One is for the bike, and the other two are for cars and heavy trucks.
Father has a bike shop on the back of his garage and I have a garage for complete auto repair.

a buddy of mine in corpus christi just bought two of the full size lift benches from harbour freight and he likes them allot and i think he said they were about 350.00 so they are very reasonable and he said they seem to be decent quality as well.

Mine are home made as well. I'd really like to have the lift type tables but these have worked for me for many years. Currently I have 3 tables up and always in use.They are 30"x 8' and only cost around $60 to build.
