Jacking the airplane

Hi,

Now that I am done with the airplane -- just about - I have to figure a 
different way of jacking it to swing the gear. I have been bolting through 
the fuselage, but now that I have paint on it (a good way to describe the 
quality of my paint job!) I cannot jack it that way. 

What are most people doing to jack their airplanes? I have seen motorcycle 
jacks under the fuselage (can't figure the way to support that without 
damaging the structure) and maybe under the wing spars - inboard (that would 
need to be secure from slipping onto the skin.

Thanks,

Dave
