Quality effort there m8!!!
Can it raise the front wheel as well?.
Got any dimensions and details of the construction?.
Guy on my shift is a welder, thinking of getting him to knock something similar up.
I use a Bikegrab stand at the front ( it can however be set up to fit the rear tyre as well if required ) in conjunction with a Micron paddock stand at the rear. You can see the Bikegrab in my garage pictures.
But that looks a good bit of kit too, interested in building one myself!!
