Default Hoist Davit is Complete!

Pictures are in dropbox under davithoist. Four pics or so. Didn't know it
was so easy to post pics. Will be doing it on future stuff to make it
simpler.

On the pic showing the saddle and davit, the pin is in the saddle, you just
can't see it.

On the cabin pic, the saddle will connect to the left side of the rafter end
beam/porch support beam, and 2" will stick out to the left so the hole will
be clear.

The base will be poured into a form plumb down from the top pin. The chalk
like on the base piece is going to be the top of the concrete.

PS to Don: The top horizontal of the "gallows" is 48", not 36".
