Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] My new crane



    Congratulations on your new find. My "shop" is just a slab with a tarp and extension cord. ( as you've seen ) Very much a flintstone operation. A gantry crane would be SOOOOOO cool. I fabricated one several years ago to begin my sub project, but a forest fire took out the whole place. Kinda glad I wasn't working on the sub like I'd planned.( the design has changed a bit anyway. )
    Will you be using a chain fall or do you have a winch for it ? That crane should speed things up, and add to the safety. I almost dropped my sub a while back, using jacks and wedges to lift and turn it. Because it's so round, if it ever got loose, it would surely roll off the cliff. Be careful and remember to have fun.
