Over the past wet week I was servicing the trikes getting them ready for a ride.
I wanted and easier way to lube the chain apart from using a milk crate to sit the rear end on.
I looked at buying one of the lift things from evil bay but decided to have a go at making one myself.
This one was version 3 and works well, built from bits and pieces that I had in my steel draw.


You put the wheels against the axle and with a lift on the rear bar and pushing down on the outer handle with your foot the wheels end up about 50mm from the ground.

It's probably a bit big for the 70, but one could be made on the same principal but smaller.

Yes it probably could but I would make sure you use decent rollers with bearings and not just the cheap wheels that I used.
