Thanks for the input Tim; There are a few shuttered car dealerships nearby. I
wonder if they have something useful.
Cheers,
Mark

Subject: Re: [TR] Ramping things up
Hi Mark;
All I can think of are those ramps that car dealers seem to use to display
their cars on the forecourt sometimes, at an abnormal height. I tried to rent
one once from a dealer, because I measured the height of one to be the same
as a loading dock. I was shipping a pair of project TR3A's to a Danish
purchaser, and he'd arranged for a shipping company to arrive with a container
truck that had a loading-dock-height floor.
I wasn't able to rent such a device from a dealer, but it was clear from the
design that this would work. YOu might want to tour the dealerships to see
who's displaying a car at a lofty height out the front, then check out the
device and see where you might buy one.
