    Thanks TEEJAY, yours is a well thought out bit of engineering.

    Mine started out as a pallet trolley, to bring 13 pallet lots of bricks from the front to round the back through the side door of the garage. When I realised that there was no way my Mrs and I were going to lift some of the sections of the structure I had an idea to make a mast and put a winch on it. That had to be easier than busting our guts.

    It did the job, both as a crane & a truck.

    Not sure of what to do with it once I am done building though!

    Hey Nic, what is your thoughts after the feedback?

    Cheers
