Arrrgh- I hate that.
I dropped the back of my car off a bottle jack- and the jackstand sitting next
to the car went right through the bottom of the rear fender. Went out, right
then and there, and bought a proper floor jack.
An hour later, the bottle jack went for a swim in Lake Washington, and hasn't
been heard from since.
15 years later, I still have the floor jack.
Sometimes, you learn the painful way....
