Neat idea, I like the way you think. Keep posting your progress, it's fun to follow along.

Great idea and implementation!

I would love to see more details about your lifting method/mechanism. Some of your pictures can be enlarged by "clicking"; others can't be enlarged. Would it be possible to do this for all?

Thank you,
Tom

Cool design. Really like the fold-out cubby for the feet.

Do you have a hand crank option for the lofting mechanism too?

I think you should call it Adam STANDler. "Crank it up f*ckers!"

I was originally going to use a boat winch on the tongue but the electric winch is easier and does not freewheel when coming down. I could see thing thing getting away if the handle slipped.
