Julie

Is that just the cost of shipping or does it include the price of the lifter.

Sorry, Derek, that's just the cost of shipping. I was hoping that I would be able to fit a bunch of them in a "flat rate" box so that folks who were close to each other could combine an order, but because of the size and shape of them, they don't fit.

Ive just knocked one up at work with a bit of a different design using flat bar PD.
Will have to wait until I get back from work on Friday morning to post pictures but it may give you a few more ideas and options.

G'day Robbo, I made up a few of the lid stands with flat bar and rod, 1/2" water pipe, reo bar etc etc, they all work but don't look so good, a bloke is only limited by his own imagination and mine's just run out.
Look foward to seeing your pics to give me inspiration.

Hey PD.
Heres my version.

Tested her out this morning, works a treat.

The finished product (Stainless Steel)

Instead of the tripod I just went for a T-piece at the end. I havent actually seen the Mair but would consider this to be more compact and easy to store.

http://byfiles.storage.live.com/y1pNkI9SWvpf_u6eakBHa92UHeRaNKnpfJ9Qx75gQ3FBYJkO...
Very basic, just two pieces of flat bar each folded twice and two smaller pieces folded and welded on for slide guides.

I have a short & long homemade mair/tripod type lifters. I agree that yours would be easier to store and make. The bottom could be curved a bit to suit rounded lids (furphys etc) or left flat for the flat lidded models.

I have gone off to find myself. If I get back before I return,keep me here.

Hi Logfire

I thought about making the bottom curved and havent actually tried it on my Albion yet but I think with the clamping force and the fact that with flat bar there is more surface area on the handle than roundbar it will still hold completely steady flat or round lid.
