Now that's a real DIY. Good job man

Looks nice but I don't think the unistrut connections are gonna hold up to the vibrations. Can you tack each piece together?

That box on the back needs some foamofill and a drain plug. That looks like a great cooler for drinks.

i am and elevator mechanic i use this all the time and its all about using the right bolts and and lock washers and a good impact gun they don't move

[mannydvk11]

If you put a board on the bottom it will stabilize the whole thing.

Other than that cool work

i am thinking on getting a small aluminum plate cut out at work for the bottom

So far I haven't seen any elevators getting loaded and unloaded out of a truck and then going out on a pier or bridge.
