Make a bracket to mount the winch and drill so that the drill = drives the winch. Remove the trigger-reversing switch from the drill and = add a wire of sufficent length between the trigger assembly and the = drill so that the winch-drill assembly can be mounted to the overhead. = Make sure you INSULATE ALL the electrical componets! With this setup you = can raise or lower the plate very slowly at first and faster once it has = cleared the things it needs to clear. Since you can walk around the = piano with the trigger assembly you can steady the plate as you lift it. = The one draw back is you have to bring the piano to the hoist instead of = the hoist to the piano. John Dewey jdent@soltec.net PS I am new to this internet thing so haven't figured if I need to put = in my e-mail address or if the thing puts it in automatically ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
