harbor freight has some excellent platform lift things...
worth checking....
we like things like this as large TV studio cameras weigh 100 to 200
<<and one here is 300 (tk42)>>
when we get a caucus in and want to clean it up and make it presentable
for display we like to work on it at bench height...
(once in a while it is good to raise a tape drive up in the air
too...)

the computer room and put in another rack by my self......no more.... I
just look at it in the rack and get tired now!!>>>

I've used an "engine hoist" around the shop to move heavy
stuff. It has an extendable beam and a bottle jack to raise
it. It folds up into a pretty small package when not in
use. These can often be had pretty cheaply.
