We've been needing some tall, adjustable, heavy duty jack stands on our farm for a long time now, mostly for jacking up our Willmar sprayer to change from wide flotation tires to skinny tires. But we're also currently working on changing out the main pin that the Willmar articulates on, which it's going to be really important to be able to securely support both sides of the machine while doing so. Most of the parts for the jack stands are cut out of one sheet of 1/4" plate, which I got loaded up onto the CNC table. The inner adjustable tube needs to slide in and out of an outer sleeve and have a tight fit, and since I didn't have any material that would work for this I had to fabricate the outer sleeve out of 4 cut sides of plate. With the outer tube done, I welded it onto the base plate, along with the corner gussets. Next I carefully measured and drilled the holes for the pin with the mag drill, which locks the jack stand in at different heights. Lastly I welded on some hand truck wheels, glued some thin rubber to the bottom of the stand, and gave them a coat of black paint. These jack stands are going to be great in the shop and on our farm. I'm guessing we'll be finding lots of uses for them.
