a Shop Vac?
thats interesting. is there a particular model of Shop Vac you are thinking about? will be pretty small, even at 1/18 scale...but can be done and a creeper is a good idea too.

What about a 4 post scissor lift?

I agree that a lift would be good, but I'm not sure what Stev0 means by a "4 post scissor lift". Lifts, as far as I know of, come in either 2 post (standard for car shops, and some home shops - this is what I'd recommend you design and add to the kit), 4 post with runway (for medium trucks and such), scissor (more common for home shops as they're cheaper, but more difficult to design), and parallelogram (for big trucks).

Pretty cool stuff here. Will this be for sale @ Cgutzmer's store?
A lift would be pretty cool. Something like in the first pic, a portable two post lift would be fairly small compared to a full size in terms of paper usage. I thin the second pic may be what Stevo is suggesting. |

Creeper is done!
Shop Vac is still....a stumper. Problem with some of these models, is dealing with small scale cables or hoses. For my Fire Extinguisher (that will appear in the next Aircraft Diorama Kit) I have recommended using thin tubing or even thick cord to represent the small diameter 100' Hose from the extinguisher. I'm just not sure how to properly represent it in paper model form. The same problem occurs with a Shop Vac. I can make the canister and straight tube attachments, but the flexible hose is impossible to deal with at this small scale ...and its an important part of a Vacuum Cleaner. So, I might have to forget the Shop vac idea. I'm working on an older style Engine Analyzer Unit at the moment. One of those big units every Auto Shop used to have for hooking up to a Car Engine during a TuneUP I toyed with the idea of a Car Lift. I hesitated because of the size of the kit, and number of pages required. ...I think I will revisit the idea, but stick to a simpler design. The option is: a 2 Post, swing arm Lift or a 4 Post, runway ramp lift I'm an EX Auto mechanic, so I understand the Lift configurations. I'll see which works better for my design skills. [Scissor lift doesn't use Posts, thats why it has a scissor...this is too complicated anyway]
