There was a garage sale around the corner from me that was selling
scissor jacks left over from installing rack mounted equipment.
These were big steel 19" square jacks it looked at the time that it
would only lift the item a foot at most.

I have a PDP 11/34 that either needs help lifting the parts into the
racks or someone who will take it home.
