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. Frank D. A Good Credit Score is 700 or Above. See yours in just 2 easy steps! |
