I got one in my garage you could have taken with you for $100.00. Its one of those fold up ones from Costco, they sell them for about 180 bucks or so. I am not going to use it again and its just taking up space.

Goes along the same lines as figthing with something for five minutes using all 3 of your arms and your 4th leg to hold it in place (insert image of large mechanical part here), then finally jamming your head against something sharp so you can free up an arm for a second while you are starting to shake your muscles are getting so tired. When you reach back for that life saving nut/bolt, you feel tools, other nuts and bolts. Painfully turning your head you see the needed hardware across the floor were it was kicked the last time you slid out from under the car.

One of those? IPB Image
