Marra,they go down great when fully boarded mate,it's the future lol,and there's a knack to being on top of it when it drops,just bend them knees lad hehe,this was a daily thing back in the day,not advisable with sticky's though:eek:
 
Blame that fecking marra, im just adding to it..

But yeah long live the shunt.

Doing a drop with easy fix is even better.
 
WOW,that brings back memories,never done it myself but remember when I first started out used to see my old man and his mates do this loads of times and rake in the cash as a strike n re-erect.
 
to be honest lee iam surprised we can still do this with all the health & safety about but it makes a good job an knock for fridays
 
Always find it easier to stand up on the lift for the last few, works like a dream especially if you're trannies are off the wall already,pricework specials gotta love em :D
And who am I kidding pricework.....fukin eaves on new builds extending down with long facias into the lift, pulled me out the sh1t a few times this....if you can get away with it drop it by a level ...your bottom handrail becomes the top
