Hey, thanks for posting! Very impressive! How much space did you require for the entire dumbwaiter...width and depth? And then what interior dimensions did you end up with on the interior?
Hi Karla, I used a standard 60x60 cm IKEA closet, so the required space was aprox 70x70 cm. Inside dimensions, ie. inside the elevator, is 49x54x62 (WxDxH). cm.
Thanks, Elad. I also have made a 40x60 cm laundry shaft and it works fine. Since the laundry is always going down, this is simply operated by Uncle Isac and no motor.
Hi Manuel, Thanks for followng! The control system is very simple, I made it myself; Up/down/stop switches, two relays, and microswitches for end stop (as can be seen 3:00). First motor (shown in the video) broke after some months, so I replaced it with a simple 100 kg winch from jula.no.
I would spend less on the luxury of the house and get a house in a neighborhood where you don't need to lock your lift door on your roof but that is just me. The DIY is a bit misplaced in the title because of the equipment you have. That said, That is a very nice hidden kitchen elevator.
Thank you for your comment! Well, to the "DIY".. I did it myself! - everything from the design to the smallest parts 😄. Except the IKEA cabinet which I bought. The tools I have in my basement is a minimum for any DIY-ers, right! 😆
I’m sorry for the rude comments from jealous people. This is amazing!
Thank you! 😄
When opening up for comments, one have to expect it. Good to have your positive feedback though 🙃
Hej
Is it possible to know what tools and equipment you use to make this . Very good job by the way

@@newtracksas5762 thanks so much for the info! Really appreciate it!
Nice build , for safety add a switch for the lower and upper door so the cabinet don't move if the door was open .
Yes, you are right 😄 I already included this safety switch some time ago. Safety is important!
Nice, Thanks.
Is there a way to do the same but with a curve shaft? and rather small for laundry basket?
Thanks, Elad.

@@newtracksas5762 What about for shafts that are horizontal half of the way? no gravity forces here...
Absolutely amazing job. However I can do without the background music - it's really annoying.
Thank you, Rodney!
Hi! can you tell us what type of control system and motor did you use for this proyect? Thank you!

@@newtracksas5762 Alright! Thank you ! I'm trying to do my own to
Amazing 👏🏻
unreal congrats....... but honestly DIY? if you have huge investment in tools and a vast knowledge of electrical wiring.
Thank you! 😊
DIY = Do It Yourself, and I did it myself. Some tools and knowledge is a must! 😆
The word you are looking for is "dumbwaiter"
@@newtracksas5762 that is what they are called.
@@newtracksas5762 woke.
@@Ham549 Yes you are right, of course

Nice job, but get outta here with this "DIY" business with all that computerized machine tooling. lol.
This is just a private project I did in my house. My business is product development but this project was just for fun - but very useful 😄
