    After perusing the comments, it is clear that most of the comments are negative. I sure do not see anyone stepping up and doing a better job. The man was kind enough to show you all his idea. Next time step up to plate or keep quiet. Thanks Bill for the getting the juices going inside the noggin!

    Thanks for demonstrating an actual load! Some of these guys build a pickup/trailer crane and then lift a 100lb log.

      adrock84 I built this crane for my truck. It might give you a idea, on building your own. It is simple and set up is minimal. Could you shoot me a thumbs up & possibly ac subscribe. For more heavy metal builds?

    I saw the crane bend, the truck chassis bottom out, and waited for that one eye bolt to lose it but it never did. Marvelous eye bolt. Great crane idea.

    Amazing how many guys can sit in their mama's basement eating a ham sandwich and criticizing everything anyone ACTUALLY working does!! That system looks great, works great and thank you for showing it to those of us who know what it takes to DO something!!!! I have something similar for loading large rocks, but it uses an electric winch. Thanks!!

    Very well presented. Bravo. No dialogue needed. Good balance on the triangles. Maybe(?) consider a truss or gusset on that upright, only to slow it's eventual warp. But it all seems well within limits for that 400 lb log.

  • @azdieseltech6361
    @azdieseltech6361 9 лет назад +15

    The amount of deflection in the boom is a little worrying. But, it did the lift. But, I wouldn't trust it to do that kind of lift over and over again. Like said before. Some reinforcement would be a good idea. I am certified rigging, mobile, and overhead crane operator. Metal fatigue would be my main concern. Cool idea though, I am definitely stealing some of the design ideas. I like the double receiver idea a lot. Going to be using mine on lifting heavy vehicle parts on and off of my flatbed F250. Engines, etc. Don't want it to be a permanent attachment to my truck, so this works really well.

    • @ernienapier70
      @ernienapier70 7 лет назад +1

    Nice rig! What about a vertical support from the ground to the bottom of the vertical member, even if it's a floor jack or a stand, I think it'd greatly increase the stability. I've been wanting to build one of these for so long...one day soon I hope! Nice work man!

      Mike Mccomis I built this crane for my truck. It might give you a idea, on building your own. It is simple and set up is minimal. Could you shoot me a thumbs up & possibly ac subscribe. For more heavy metal builds?

    If I make this out of a 3x2x1/4 inch rectangle tube would it be strong enough for 2000 pounds? I would also have a leg to support it.

      That would work but a chain hoist is much faster. How about having both for more flexibility, however that would make the hoist heavy or more hassle to assemble for each use.

      Depends on how much you can lift though. That also requires more physical effort than using a crane with a pulley.
