Poormans Hoist was created by GT 14
So I wanted an overhead hoist for the shed. After pondering for a few days I had a brain fart. Had some 2x6 laying around so slapped some up and then made a trolley with 1 1/4" pipe. Got a 1T chain hoist and here she is. Using a rope and pulley to position for now.

I lifted the front of the c-225 and didn't hear any complaint from the structure. Will try the whole tractor next.

That will be phase 2 Bob, I was thinking of installing hand winches on each side. It rolls easily unloaded.
