Chris Lewis,

Would you be willing to share a digital photo of your configuration?
I'm not asking you to climb in to your attic, but perhaps from the
garage side of things.... Or if you could slap a crude drawing
together in paintbrush that would be super helpful.

How did you tie the 4x4 to the 4 trusses? Lag bolts? Also, did the
4x4 extend beyond the far left and right truss a few inches or end
directly on the edge of those trusses?

Why was the quicklink necessary between the eyebolt and the chain
hoist? Also, did your eyebolt extend down far enough from on top of
the trusses in the attic, the full height of the truss and through
sheetrock if you have it?

Thanks for sharing the details of your setup.

Chris
