Big Sale Is On - UPDATED 03-26-26

The Big Sale is on but not like originally planned, it is a by appointment type of thing now. Be sure to call before you come to make sure the day isn't already full with peeps scheduled to come in, and make sure what you want is still available.

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.
