I used the steel plate that is the underside of the Steady rest.
I bolted this to the ways adjusted it back and forth for a balance
point....... and used a rented engine hoist to do the actual liftiing.

The hoist did not have enough throw to go from pallet to stand in one
lift, so I picked it up about a foot, the supported it on stacked 4x4
lumber while I reset the chain.

I also used a backup chain and shackel around the ways to
catch it if the plate or bolt from the steady rest failed.

All done, now to wire it up and play with it!
