Whoa Nellie. How did that happen Don?

 

[Basil]

Yikes!

[DNK]

Exactly Elliot.
DON"T FORGET TO LOCK DOWN THE SWING ARMS!!!!!!!

 

[Gliderman8]

Oh mama. Glad you didn't get hurt.

 

[3798j]

That had to scare the crap out of you.

Took a break to eat lunch and calm down.
After lunch almost dropped it on it's side.
Wasn't paying attention when I was lowering it and I had forgot to unlock one side. It was at about a 45 degree "TILT" when I saw it.
Fixed that and called it a day!

Any, hopefully, not damage.

Exactly Elliot.

I never lock mine and if it's racked right it doesn't matter, an unequal safety lock will do that on the way down though.

Glad it wasn't worse as it could've been. One of Burt Levy's amusing (in retrospect) stories of a similar incident: https://www.motorsportsmarketingres...urt-levy/the-lift-from-****-by-burt-levy.html

That happen on the way up or down?

 

[Healeysince59]

Could be worse

Could be worse

Loos like they added too much lightness to the front.

...or the guy lifting it had NO idea what he was doing. That becomes a "total" BTW. Heads should roll over it.
