Perhaps you could try a design similar to the sheetrock lifts? Or
maybe modify one of them for the additional weight and stresses.

I found out I'm too old to throw rock around like I used to and rented
one last Summer. That's a tool I might buy if I stumble across a good
deal.


$169 delivered to my door from Ebay. I often coveted one, but wouldn't
pay the $500+ bill plus shipping from the likes of Northern Tools. Then
I found the ones on Ebay, and couldn't pass up the opportunity. 'never
looked back! I wouldn't part with it.

That's a good deal. I'll look into it, thanks.

Drove 250 miles to buy one from a rental company that was going under
last year. The guy told me on three seperate occasions that it would
go 10' high. I have to have that, anything less won't work. I get
there and guess how high it went? Yeah, 8' 6".
