I'm building a portable elevator to mount on my tractor's 3-point hitch
so I can reach into trees, etc. It will be based on a Genie SuperLift
24 which is rated for 24' overhead lift 0f 640#. I want something small
and light and cheap, a 55 gal drum seems a little too small to hold me
with my tools. The actual lift will be limited to 20'

A sturdy drum bigger than the std 55 gal might work, metal or plastic,
or even a wicker basket. I'm looking for ideas. Incidentally, I have
an unlimited supply of bamboo if that could be used. Any suggestions
appreciated, I usually find good ideas here
