Need winch ideas for my handicapped accessible cab

Pages: << < (2/7) > >>

Avery:

A couple ideas (some better than others):

Use a pulley and counterweight to minimize the load you have to lift.

JDSkydiver:

Check you Personal Mail and email me.  I have some ideas....

some sort of motor would probabally do they job, perhaps a servo modified for continual rotation?

KonkeyKong:

Awesome ideas guys, so far I'm kinda' groovin' on the cordless screwdriver idea.  A little slower so I won't rip the door of it's hinges, forward and reverse for open and close, an easily hackable switch I could move to a remote location, fairly inexpensive in the right situations, small and compact, I like it, I like it.  The brainpower of this community rocks!
