Been working on a Lift Elevator for the Pole Barn. I decided to build a hoist type lift. I tried the Unistrut and wheels you find on Amazon and they didn't work very well. Any off balance loading on the platform created binding and a dangerous situation so I removed all the welds and rebuilt...
I've wired up the inside of my shop building and now looking to add an exterior outlet on the side-shed/porch. The inside isn't finished -- just metal fastened to the girts with thin foil-faced insulation in between.

Also looking for a pole barn builder that will travel for work in central Va.
