      For buildings, it will be a long time before that happens. Lumber is a shared industry between the US and Canada and the US market rules.

      It's Canada, you have to respect their measurement identity, no matter how ridiculous, or face severe legal punishment. :p

    For wheel changes I typically use a ladder. with a cheap 12v boat winch mounted to a piece of wood at the top. Connect the winch to the bike's battery, then lift for wheel removal. In your vid you show the bike swinging, but this is easily remedied by straps to the ladder steps on either side.

    I don't own a motorcycle - but I own a lot of mtbs and have since switched to buying everything I can from Fortnine. Mostly because the prices are very good. But also I like to think that each purchase helps feed Ryan.

    Good concept but I can see this tipping sideways as it's very narrow. I would improve the design by adding gussets to the side of the legs for stability (or swinging outriggers with a chain to limit their extension). Then making it fold almost flat for storage along a wall by change the leg fixings to more pipe pivots, with a pin to lock them in place when in use, then it can parallelogram down. Then you can stand it on its end and tie it to the wall.

      I think they're redoing it. They had a serious error with one of their tests. The equated gasproof with waterproof.
      Their demo for gasproof looked cool, but it didn't show how water proof the gloves were.

      Copied from earlier reply:
      They messed up with equating gasproof with waterproof. They had a cool bubbling tanks with slightly compressed air inside the gloves. It looked cool but it didn't prove what they thought they were proving. The replacement video will likely fix this error.

    You could build it solid too (no pivot), and use a folding loading ramp from crappy tire to get the bike on, to simplify building and keep costs down. The biggest PITA for me (when working on street bikes) is always getting the front end up and well supported to remove the forks. I've definitely done the ladder trick, as well as the rafter trick!
