How to build a backyard tow rope - homemade Ski lift that works great! DIY
Просмотров 66 тыс.4 года назад
Take a look at my quest on how I built and designed a ski lift for the kids and adults, built out of local hardware store materials
My dream
It looks great, but it seems that there is already firm base. I would be afraid of wheels would leave ditches in case of fresh powder snow.
Nice video, annoying music had to mute
How long is your hill? Size of rope? Very cool
What kind of Rubber is this blue thing made of? And where i can get it?
What size pulleys did you use for motor and tire?
Kevin, Check out "Part Two" we talk about the pulleys
Brillant
How fast is the rope speed?
not exactly sure, but we would not want it any faster
Beauty build! Where did you find your leading pulley before the drive wheel?
I feel like my channel may have inspired a bit of this build lol. Nice job man.
Very nice! What size tire and rim did you use?
Thanks for sharing this video. I definitely took some inspiration from you with our own rope tow build here in Ontario. Gotta love #princessauto for sourcing random parts! Just wanted to say thanks for the inspiration. Here's our story: ruclips.net/video/RkfxB2qaLiY/видео.html
very cool
In the future a mini terrain park would be really cool
agreed! in the works for the future, check out our part 2 video on our page
What are the pulley sizes?
smart
Would you change anything on your design? Is the rope staying on? Great job btw
Check out our video "PART 2" on our channel, I would go with a Chain drive that way belt would never slip or have to be tightened every year
how do you attach the frame tongue
I purchased a class 3 a frame tow bar assembly, it came with saddle that I put bolts straight through the wooden 2x6 with nuts and washers on other end here is the link www.princessauto.com/en/class-iii-adjustable-a-frame-tow-bar/product/PA0008041550
is there a safety shut off in case some one run to the rope pulley?
Yes its in the video, or check out the part two video on our channel
Hi-- this is wonderful. ONe question-- did you have to weld anything on the trailer coupler or were able to use all bolted connections? Can you share where you found the coupler?
Don, we uses a class 3 A-Frame trailer tow bar assembly, it comes with pivot mounts, we used 5/8" bolts with washers and nuts to attach to the wood frame. here is the link www.princessauto.com/en/class-iii-adjustable-a-frame-tow-bar/product/PA0008041550
Beautiful
Nicely done!!
Great build. I was trying to figure out what size pulley’s you used on the motor and on the tire end?
Had a 12" but that was to small i believe it's now a 14" or 15" diameter
I'm going to build something similar for my uncle. My uncle's house is at the bottom of a big hill. Would this work if the unit was at the bottom of the hill? I think it will but he is determined to run power to the top of the hill and it run like what you have.
Honestly i am not to sure, I dont see why not the slack in the rope might be an issue. Check out part to i am uploading it today
Well this is awesome 👏
Where did you get your big pulley
Princess Auto, I believe some Peavy Marts also have them. Get the largest one you can get or I would have used a chain drive to prevent slipping if I built another one. Mark
@STRAUSS HOUSE I think it would be a good idea to build wooden/metal towers. I think it would help getting the rope on the return side up and out of the way so it doesn’t interfere with the skiers. That’s my only recommendation but overall, great design!
hey, yes you could put the towers in a few ways to do it. I will put up part two of the video today stay tuned
This looks great for what i want to do! Just wondering how it is holding up to usage?
Used it again today, every snowfall. We now pull it with a 4stroke snowmobile quad would get stuck often
Un "framage" de lit métallique en fer L 2" x 2" avec ajout de 2 L à angle dans le centre fait très bien le travail et ça ne bourre pas.
what motor did u use?
Lol what's next? You should build a terrain park out of dirt jumps maybe rail then it would be sick. I'm sure the neighbors kids jelly
That looks like a lot of fun!
Thanks so much for posting your build. Did a bit of copying for our setup here: ruclips.net/video/MTuUhdL6jZI/видео.html
That's awesome
Very nicely done. We did a very similar model at home, but I'm having issues with the rope sliding on the tire in snowy conditions. Worked great all weekend in very cold and dry weather, but today in the snow, the rope kept sliding and loosing all traction. did you have issues with that?
Hello, yes we did, I will be putting the part two video up today with more details
What's the speed on this one?
Great build. Inspired me to get on my own. Have you made any mods on the lift since this video? #berta
Jason, yes a few key improvements check out part 2 of the video on our channel
great work
So rad !
Can you send me the plans Thank you
I noticed you said you used a 3/4" rope. Any chance you could be a bit more specific? Polypropylene? Solid braid? etc. Thank you.
Hey sorry for the delay, 3/4" Polypro rope. 3 strand purchased from ULINE
@@strauss_house appreciate it. Thanks for the reply. Waiting for snow.
Hi. Greetings from UK. Amazing job. Keen to build this any chance of the those simple plans you drew up and the electrical info? Thanks
HOPE TO PUT MORE INFO UP THIS YEAR, HAVE DONE ALOT OF MODIFICTIONS. ELECTRICAL, CONVERTED TO 230 VOLT
Awesome work, thanks for the video. I'm building one for my kids, I noticed in the first assembled view the belt pulley was smaller than the tire, and later in the video, the pulley was about the same diameter of the tire. Did you solve some gearing/speed concerns that you might be willing to share?
I am uploading part two of the video today gives a better explanation
Yes upgraded to a larger pulley 12" was to small
Sorry to bug and thanks for your previous reply. I built mine, loosely modeled after yours but am still having trouble. It is chain driven, 11 tooth on motor to 21 tooth on Jack shaft. 10 tooth on Jack shaft to 40 tooth on driven axle. Still not enough power to pull. I have a 3 horse 3450 rpm motor. Just curious about your rope size and length. (I’m trying to pull 1” rope, 600’ of total length. 300’ of towing)
@@beauminnick8531 ok that is not good, your 1st issue is the 3450 rpm motor, that is the incorrect one, you will need a 1725 RPM model. Even the 1725 motor I am running 2" pully on the motor shaft and 16" pully on the tire, with that reduction it's still almost to fast, 3450 will be way to fast and no torque to start up etc.
just wondering what size is your tubular stock ? Appears to be about 1X3 ? also you commented that you would upsize to a larger HP motor. From what little searching I did motors greater than 2 HP also have higher RPMs requiring a greater gear reduction to keep rope speed manageable. Do you have a recommendation on a higher HP >2 HP that is around 1800 RPMs as well? Otherwise nice job!! Trying to get the grandson into boarding and his back yard is perfect for this - thanks for sharing
Brian, 2 hp and 3 hp come in 1785 rpm motors, you are correct the 5 hp is over 3000 rpm. to fast would need a gear box etc reduction.
I would have enjoyed the build but the music was super annoying.
After watching through the whole video, it's pretty slick. Nice job, I especially like the electrical. Do you have a system that keeps it from running backwards when the safety fence trips or there's a power outage?
there is more than enough motor drag that it will not run backwards, even with adults
I couldn't watch any further without commenting on your garage. It's quite nice with the poured resin floor and living area. I know it seems odd for the focus of the video, but resin floors are pretty cool. Our little theatre company installed one in the auditorium and, though with a dry mop or wet mop, it's a pain to clean but looks better than the old concrete floor.
Thanks 👍
Only in a murica🤣🤣
It’s Canada lmao
Wow. Best DIY tow rope yet. Chair lift soon?
Very nice indeed.
