After I got my used hydralic / pneumatic lift I took a few measurements and had Home Depot staff use their large panel saw to do most of the cuts on the 2 pieces of tongue and groove 3/4" plywood. I made 2 platforms about 30" wide, 7' long and 6"high and they fit just under the edge of the lift table to stabilize it. I just lay the platforms down overlapping the ramp. The oversized platforms make riding up under power a one person piece of cake. I then put the bike on its centerstand and it's pretty stable. The platforms have legs and I then convert them to tables for tools or laying out plastic bits as I strip the bike. Most commercial table legs put the table top way too low for me and they can be, literally, a pain to use. My tables are about 36" or counter top high. While I haven't used this feature yet the T & G edge allows me to join the 2 tables into a larger one for large woodworking projects or whatever else might require a 60" by 84" work surface. When the lift in not in use I leave it locked at the mid setting and stack the 2 platforms on top of it and I use this as a table as space is always tight in a 2 car garage.
