I am not knocking the idea of this. I see that removing and replacing the posts over the bolts in the floor will eventually lead to the threads of the bolts being damaged, then you will not be able to securely hold it to the floor and it will have to be leveled each time you put it back in place. You will also have two posts stored that are sitting on a relatively small base each weighing some 145kgs each that should they get knocked are going to cause some damage if they fall, they would need to be secured to stop them falling. The 3 inch wheels that the posts are moved on would need a perfectly flat clean floor as if they get caught on a small stone/object and stop suddenly then you are trying to control a lot of weight plus the bolts will still be in the floor and they may be some other cause of a problem. As I say this is just my opinion and I am not trying to cause any arguments. I would think it is just as easy to have the posts in place all the time, then it will ready when you need it.

Spot on observations for me and concerns that I share. The benefit of this one is the much lower height than some others, that may be more appropriate for low ceiling height garages.
I’d be looking to keep something in place pretty much all of the time ideally, but it’d be a nice option to pack it away for a while once the project cars are done (are they ever truly done though!?
)
