What an awesome little project, its going to be mental!!!

I've seem some uses for the Protein Tubs in my time but as axle stands!!! I guess Bob must be adding something to the plastic to make that stronger. lol Theres me just using them for bolts etc and you support a car on them. I assume your a gym rat then so how are you going to fit into a Mini with a widened tunnel?? It could be a comical look.

Yeah I get down the gym don't go to mad with it though just keeping fit. It's going to be a bit tight as I'm 6foot2.
