Home made crane

[MrJimi]

This is a crane I made a few years ago for lifting trusses ( 53 feet wide! ) on my walls, 16' up, and was 32' tall and pick up anything, here it is inside lifting my 16" H beams that weigh 900 pounds

And here is a picture of my little storage shed

and the Warn 8,000 pound winch that does all the work

Thanks

That’s pretty clever Jim. I’ll bet a 53’ truss was a heck of a load at that height. Great looking barn also.

Man calling it a classy barn is putting it mildly! Very nice.....

Maybe you could stick a long, large diameter piece of pipe out the top making it appear to be a cannon sticking out of a gun turret. That way no person in their right mind would ever think about messing with your stuff.

Sorry, I really need to lay off the caffeine in the morning. /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif
