I work under cars all day every day - keeping them "up" is a necessity. I use 4 18" wide, 18" high cut rounds off a tree-trunk. Been using them 4 rounds for years now. I have a lovely shiny 2-post lift - that don't work for what I do - I repair rust, so the lift is almost always in the way of what I want to get at - so the lift gets little use. The lumps of wood do. I sit the front lower balljoint bolt onto the wood so it sinks in - that'll never slide. The rears, I jam the timber in under the axle. Never gonna move. If you don't fancy using lumps of solid wood (which work great btw) then buying axle-stands isn't exactly exorbitant - they're pretty cheap off the shelf. No idea why anyone would fancy making their own - they're peanuts to buy. But lumps of wood are safer - there's no chance of them falling over, metal on wood doesn't slide like metal on metal does & there's no welds to break or pins to forget/shear whatever. If I'm in under a 2 ton jeep or a 5 ton bus - and I'm gonna be in under there all day today, all day tomorrow & maybe even a bit of the next day - I want to be sure it ain't gonna fall on my head. 4 big rounds of tree-trunk give me that guarantee. I still bang in 2 4 ton trolley jacks - one fore, one aft - just as insurance. If I was relying on a contraption I welded together, there would always be that niggling doubt - "Did I dun goof on 1 weld?"......
I do exactly the same Sir. I put a clutch in my Transit Connect van last week and supported it in the way you suggest using rounds cut from large tree trunks. I know people do use axle stands, but they never seem to be completely stable to me and I like to be 100% safe. Take care and good luck with all you do. David (Leeds, UK)
I have a variety of lumps of timber in my shop for supporting. The cars and vans . I’ve done this for decades and never once had a problem . I know I can trust them . Occasionally I use my stands but always leave my jacks in place also as I don’t trust stands as much as the blocks of wood . This is a great workshop safety tip .
I live in S. Florida, so I often have to bite my tongue when I see people beneath vehicles precariously supported by cinder blocks. Natural selection isn't always painless!
Тормозной диск вообще-то хрупкий и ломкий, если опереть его на нервную поверхность и дать нагрузку этой стойки, то с высокой долей вероятности он треснет.
THIS IS A VERY BAD IDEA!!!!! DON'T DO THIS PEOPLE!!!! YOU ARE ENDANGERING YOUR LIFE!!!!!! The brake disks are made of cast iron, which is an amorphous solid, and is in danger to break/shatter at any moment. It's like glas or ceramics. For this kind of thing you need steel, which has an crystallin structure.
I agree. When I’m under my 4600 pound car I want professional jack stands. Always I have more jack stand then required. When all four wheels are off the ground I have 4 6-tons jacket stands and another 4 3-ton jack stands up just in case.
Muy bueno, es la primera vez que veo un trabajo con un disco de frenos qué sirve para algo más que doblar hierro, como todos los proyectos en UA-cam con discos de frenos solo hacen dobladora de hierro. "exelente " tu proyecto .
excelente idea 💡 amigo tengo que cambiar amortiguadores de mi auto y estoy pensando hacer un prensa espirales en mi canal gracias por compartir 😊 saludos desde Argentina 👍
I agree with you . The brake rotor has been designed to hold the weight of the vehicle. The concern is at the weldment because cast iron can be brittle at the weldment. I see that the bolts are for assisting the load and are in the correct location by design. Also the steel pipe holds weight in the center from the car to the ground. I may have used everdor rod or even silicon bronze as a weldment filler to avoid any brittle weldment
7:40 Te profile nie służą do podnoszenia i podpierania samochodu!, one pełnią tylko i wyłącznie funkcję usztywnienia płyty podłogowej, poza tym stojak świetnie wykonany, no poza tym iż dałbym z 3 cm więcej zapasu rury pod ostatnim otworem :)
Podstawa z tarczy hamulcowej , czyli z żeliwa to moim zdaniem niezbyt dobry pomysł. Żeliwo jest kruche, a używana tarcza hamulcowa już swoje przeszła. Może być popękana. Jako zabezpieczenie samochodu w celu wymiany koła, to taki stojak na pewno się sprawdzi. Gdybym miał cokolwiek robić pod samochodem, to na pewno nie użył bym takiego stojaka. Wybrałbym wykonany w całości ze stali.
I would worry about the disc. Over the years I have spent in the trade I have seen several discs shear from the centre due to wear or impact. so I think I would be a little nervous in case there was an uneven load on the base.
Я тоже хотел сам сделать, но не нашёл материалов и просто купил 2 шт. У меня они на трёх ножках, это практичнее. Можно ставить около домкрата, и устойчивость лучше.
Прикол в том что материал из которого изготовлен тормозной диск очень хрупок и он обязательно сломается при незначительном перекосе если поддерживаемое изделие покатится
Тоже подумал о том, что тормозной диск чугунный и может лопнуть от боковых нагрузок. Да и толщина у него для подобных целей маловата, как для чугуна. Спасает только то, что труба опорается на пол и несёт на себе основную нагрузку.
私はあなたの製品が本当に好きです、素晴らしいアイデア

@@francisniestemski7382 It is always better to be safe than sorry, or "not to be"
Death trap idea!!!!!
first thing I thought of too cast iron!
brittle, plus the flat surface to ground contact, one small stone could be the stands downfall.
DANGEROUS!!!!!!!!
Mjeshtër me fantazi teknike ,të lumeshin duart e arta .,faleminderit.
All the weight is carried by the shear force of a standard bolt. AMAZING!
Interesting build. Wouldn't trust it in the end position though.
Right ! Have a nice day .
فكرة تخبل وعاشت ايدك تحياتي من العراق😮
Great idéia.... fantastic Work!
Yes. 3 legs more reasonable and easy making. Very old construction my father had in Soviet Union even in 1975...
فوق العاده بود، لذت بردم

"exelente " tu proyecto .
Самая устойчивая стойка из трёх ног. Уверенно будет стоять даже на неровной поверхности. А это, так... на ровном полу только использовать.
as a hobby, it's great. store bought ones are cheap and just as strong.
Excelente trabajo felicitaciones 👌👍👍
Vraiment super et la finition avec le pneu c’est top bravo
👏👍👍👍
Ждал концовки думал ну щас полетит😳не не полетело 😕. Диск тормозной там лишний😁
Super bien
Merci beaucoup👏👍👍👍
A very good way to explain and the job is realistic. Good video, thanks.
excelente idea 💡 amigo tengo que cambiar amortiguadores de mi auto y estoy pensando hacer un prensa espirales en mi canal gracias por compartir 😊 saludos desde Argentina 👍
Muchas gracias. Hola desde Ucrania.👏👍👍👍
No sólo para soportar coches ya que, también, puede servir de caballete y darle muchos usos.
Enhorabuena y gracias
Muchas gracias👏👍👍👍

This is a good idea recycled old parts 👍👍
Good idea & well made 👍
Thanks a lot👏👍👍👍
برافو عليك مبدع فكرة جميله
Super! From USA
Thanks a lot. From Ukraine!👍👍👍
Exelente proyecto!! Muy bueno!!
Muchas gracias👏👍👍👍
Bravo bella idea italia
A menos que su tiempo no tenga valor sigue siendo más económico y seguro comprarlo que hacerlo
If it’s all dead flat that’s great. I prefer a three point contact.
Very gud
Exelente 😂👍
Muito obrigado👌👍👍👍
Good work
Excelente!
Muito obrigado👏👍👍👍
Beautiful
Bravo!
Thanks a lot👏👍👍👍
Bravo.
Thanks a lot👏👍👍👍
Fantastic for an apprentice at college, or as a d.i.y. project.
Ich habe die Bremsscheibe in die Kreissäge eingespannt, und mit Sandpapier war die wieder fit.
👍👍👍
Boa idéia
You really good at explaining thank you
Thanks a lot👏👍👍👍
Отлично зделонна
👏👍👍👍
Espectacular!!!!!!!
Muchas gracias👏👍👍👍
Молодец, красиво, хорошо, но есть миллион вариантов как можно быстрее и проще сделать эту работу.
👍👍👍
Excellent idea and a great job. For those of us who don't have the necessary tools and equipment will have to go to Harbor Freight.
Muito bem parabéns pela ideia bem bolada
Muito obrigado👏👍👍👍
Using the design with materials available from junk is a great idea. Excellent.
Beau travail 👍👍👍🇲🇫
Merci beaucoup👏👍👍👍

Good idea. But the ground has to be absolutely flat. For the fixing of the bolt I would use a wing nut.
👏👍👍👍
👍brillante idée 💡 bravo
Good idea
👍👍👍
PARABÉNS PELAS IDÉIAS! GOSTEI MUITO E ALÉM DE ÚTEIS MUITO SIMPLES E BARATO PARA FAZER. NOTA 1000
Excelente idéia!! Ficou muito seguro e resistente. Parabéns 👏👏👏👏👏
Muito obrigado👏👍👍👍
Great idea!
Thanks a lot👏👍👍👍
It's also mucho heavyoso
You are good..
Nice build, looks stronger than the stands from the auto parts store, the #6 hole might be a bit sketchy tho, you keep a clean workshop, well done!
It may look strong but it's not.
I like the idea fella. How about making something a lot less heavy. This is a tank for sure.
Dziękuję! Wykorzystam ten patent po małych modyfikacjach do jeszcze wielu innych rzeczy w ogrodzie, szopie, garażu.
Wielkie dzięki👏👍👍👍
that is a great idea thank you for sharing it .john
Gostei show.tenhi dois disco de ix.35 Vou fazer igual
Диск то из чугуна, хрупкий.
Increíble e impresionante que bueno
Grande!! Aproveitou bem as peças!! Parabens!!!
Bravo tie
диск чугунный и хрупкий!
Nice to see you used cap nuts to neaten the bots. Nice build.
При боковой нагрузке (к примеру при поддонкрачивании второй стороны) чугуняка может лопнуть в тонком месте. Интересно, но нужны испытания на излом.
Молодец хорошая штука , класс.

Es lo mas fabuloso que e visto asta el día de hoy, felicitaciones amigo, dios le bendice 🤝🏻🙏🏻
Marvelous.
Thanks a lot👏👍👍👍
The first job this stand should be part of is to hold up a car safely that is changing its rotors so we can make another!
GJ!
Is amazing idea
non solo bravo, ma BRAVISSIMO!
Buenas noches. Que bien me gusto esa idea 100.% efectivo..que bien gracias a dios por esa idea. Venezuela
Muchas gracias👏👍👍👍
Прикол в том что материал из которого изготовлен тормозной диск очень хрупок и он обязательно сломается при незначительном перекосе если поддерживаемое изделие покатится
Ему не надо практичнее, ему надо тормозной диск в описании обосновать... )
Тоже подумал о том, что тормозной диск чугунный и может лопнуть от боковых нагрузок. Да и толщина у него для подобных целей маловата, как для чугуна. Спасает только то, что труба опорается на пол и несёт на себе основную нагрузку.

Thanks a lot👏👍👍👍
For the price of china made jack stands, this is an excellent idea.
Thank you very much for your key......1000% work :)
