How to reach in there

Its becoming obvious that I have to build a "cheater" and that I cant keep using a 5 gal bucket to stand on when I work on my truck. Before I drag the table saw out from behind the Tool cabinet, is there any comments on "mechanic evaluators" Its going to be a little weird working on a platform, I can see forgetting and falling on your a** when you "walk" over too get a tool

Plus, something else to trip over when your not using it My arms just arnt long enough
