great job dude. its nice just pull in and park on the lift. doesnt feel like it takes any room [smiley=banana.gif]

Thanks Van, I can't take all the credit Cigarmike was breaking his back for sure! It really is nice to roll it in. What even makes it better for me is that i often have 3-4 bikes in there and I can roll them in without having to have one straped down on the lift [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif]

There are pros and cons to the lift being sunk in the floor. Loosing the height that you give up being set in the floor may be a PITA depending on what you are doing. There is a hole in your floor! That lift for the most part is stationary. It is nice to just ride onto the lift at floor level. The hole in the floor is a dust/dirt/parts collector. I think I have a few species of spiders living under mine!

Hey Mike - Does the vent free heater present a moisture problem?

With my garage it isn't terrible. I say that as I have three more bays that are not heated. I believe this allows enough fresh air to enter the single bay that I don't have issues. It is odd as I install secondary heat as a living for the last 20 years and I always talk my customers out of non vented products. The one in my garage is a Frankenstein unit made up of parts from various removed units.  :'(  I should have a vented unit myself, just to cheap to actually pay for it! ;)
