 need a 110V winch

Murf; I like your idea on the opposed spring loaded planks, I had a somewhat similar idea in mind but I think you improved a bit on my design.
KT; Probably 15 yrs. ago I got volunteered to be the head of a crew at our church made up of very capable volunteers from our parish to design, build and contract for an elevator to be installed in our new handicap entrance. It was interesting to do this simply for the learning experience about public passenger elevators. We had to by the rules of the Arch Diosesis (somebody correctly spell it for me, please) get three bids on the elevator. We turned down the two lowest, not by much in favor of a local person who had a good reputation for church and school elevators in our aeria. Yes there are many interlocks and safety devices to check on door closings, overload sensors, on and on, but all for good reason. It has worked almost flawlessly to this day. Little did I realize at that time that today in 2007 I would be one of the primary users of this elevator. A local welder has access to used forklifts of most any quality. I've looked at his typical "Inventory", most have more oil on and under them than is still left in them. They are cheap, yes, but a woodshop and a leaky old forklift just don't mix too well. I also looked into a new systwm incorporating a hydraulic lift, but I just don't want any oil within leaking or spurting distance of some hardwood lumber that is now, Cherry for example pushing six bucks a board foot. Thanks again for all the help, I think i've pretty much decided on the basic design and will stick with the cable wrap hoist I described earlier. Frank.
