I am so pumped right now!! Ok, I guess I'm done for now. This will probably be where I leave The Survivor thread for a while so I can get "The Coupe-ula" ready for D9. If you'd like to follow along in more hoist adventures, please join me in my other thread. -Paul

The BEAST is alive!!!! It looks ten times more impressive in person!!! You truly did an awesome job and I R very proud to have it in the "man cave"!

My dream ride:

Soooooo when are you gonna come up here and build mine? I knew that there was some "southern engineering" in your blood somewhere. Great job on it.....

Thanks! I'll build anything for anyone... Just need time & materials! Take a vacation sometime this summer, journey down this way, and you could take home your very own hoist! My next tool to build is an engine stand. I think I'm gonna also try my hand at some sort of drill press apparatus where my drill can clamp in, then be removed for regular drilling. Either that, or I'll just go straight up scratch and build the whole setup, but then of course, I'd hafta make it rotate 90^o and become the motor of a lathe...
