Wayne,

Not sure to take your comment.  The antique contraption that I bought is 
built better than the new ones being sold today.  I called the factory 
and managed to get in touch with someone who worked for the original 
company that build mine.  He flat said they don't make them that good 
anymore.  So yeah, I guess I'm gutsy enough to stand under it.  Of 
course I use the safety's that are provided with it and never stand 
under it when they are not in place. 

Besides, when I found out the model was a TR3 I knew it was meant to be 
since my vintage race car is a 1957 TR3 :)
