suddenly, a wild hoist cart appears! (as I resume blogging)

This is the story if a shop material handling cart with a crane attached to one end.  It exists because I tried to lift my 125lb rotary table by myself and threw out my back for 18 months.

 Now, if I hadn't broken this blog - for years - with an obscure setting which much later caused Google's new media policy to break... you might have seen all the many, many efforts that lead up to this point.

 The project is not quite complete even now, as it needs outriggers and one counterweight needs to be... filled. The ouriggers are  waiting for money for the steel to make them.  We're broke, so anything I do goes very slowly.

Now that I finally found and fixed the picture posting problem with Blogger™, I'll be making a long series of posts about this project starting Real Soon Now.

EDIT, LATER: I am writing up the entire build process of the cart and its parts in a multi-part series.

In a 'Git 'Er Done' style, I'm getting the parts written and posted as quickly as I can, but I reserve the right to go back and add/replace photos or edit entries for readability, completeness, appearance, etc.
