I know this may seem elemental, but how do you build the 2x4 wheel blocks (in place of jack stands) to raise a car up to on and work under? dont want to try and re-invent them and want to rely on safety. How high can you make them? Nails, screws, how many, how long of material, etc. In fact, I dont even know what you call them.
proper term is cribbing blocks. They use these to lift houses from their foundations.
Heres a great write up to make a sturdy set.

Tire size will determin width and length. I have found that 16" long and wide works well for tires up to 345 mm. I like to use 2" wood screws in case I want to lower or increase the height easily.
