Hmmm, probably only on the Navy postgrad. Navy usually has an autoshop with lift access. Not sure if there is one here, but you would of course need military access in some form. I would toss in advert into local CL and see if you get any responses.

Ive honestly thought about renting one of those small warehouse/storage type things putting a lift in one just for this purpose.

I used to make e-liquids a while back, and did the same thing and shoved a iso 7 cleanroom inside.

Yeah I think I was gonna start looking into that, I looked into the price of lifts and only between 1-3k or so wasn't as bad as I was expecting

2.5hrs to Travis. Still a long way. My suggestion? Save up and ask Santa to help buy you a Quick Jack. $1k + My coworker bought one for his FoRS.
QuickJack 5,000lb. SLX Capacity Portable Car Lift Bundle (costco.com) I'd like to get one, but....idk, looking ahead at what work I can do vs. what work I want to do vs. what work my body will let me do in the future, who knows...I'm staying with ramps and the auto hobby shop is about 30 min away when I need it.

That's what I was looking at too, might get it when I have another car friend come out
