yes!! WIsh it was that fast though lol

I believe i only spent around $300 for the hoist and some odds and ends. No charge for labor as i built it for myself, but made a good return with out on the job it was built for. 2 years later its still going strong!!!!

We only needed an 18ft section, but if you were to need to get up 26ft you could just swap the components over to a taller ladder!

@@theshop6161 i meant that it wouldn't work on an extension laddar, because of the 2 laddars overlapping

Oufff haha now thats a challenge! I'm not sure off the top of my head as to how i would do something like that, but its probably possible! My concerns would be 1. Weight - The lift is already fairly heavy and a bit awkward to move about, so I can only imagine adding more hardware/components. 2. Moving components - Something like an adjustability feature introduces more complexity/moving parts and would create more potential for either user error or mishap. I wouldnt be against the idea, but keeping it simple would be best. Actually as I'm writing this i just thought of a "solution". Instead of having the ladder be adjustable just keep multiple ladders of different lengths. Kind of a simple solution that would only require mounting the basket and motor from one ladder to another (which is not hard to do). That way you get your adjustability, but don't sacrifice the weight or structure of the ladder hoist!

@@theshop6161 ive also looked up some profi models. they have U beams 5 pieces that fit in each other.. and move in and out. and use a big wheel that wont get stuck on the hight difference

@@theshop6161 what about using an extension ladder, adjust the ladder to the height you want, and if you don't like those skimpy hooks that lock it in place, drill and through bolt it. That way the top stays the same and the motor is mounted on the bottom section.

I'll do my best to recall everything! Most of it was scrap material I had laying around

Hell yeah man!!! Thats what its about!

hahaha I suppose you could do that!

You can do that with everything but that would take so much time.

Absolutely! Thank you really appreciate it!

I'd agree. if you had the choice go with the heavier ladder. We used what we had at the time, but good point!

thanks!!!

Hey sorry for the late reply! Worked out great so far! Hauled about 50+ Bundles on it and no problems so far. Can't say i'd change anything about it yet, but we're about to put it back to work so ill let you know.

@@theshop6161 Thank you. If the price of lumber continues, I'm going to put off my addition plans (current house is 600 sf, adding 400 sf). I appreciate you sharing your hoist.

@@SuperJamster1 Oh I hear ya! We're feeling the impact of lumber prices here too....craziness

you sure did. 2:15

@@firesurfer Thanks for the assist!

Hell yeah!!! Thanks!

Glad i could do him proud!

Hell yeah!! Thanks!
