Head Lifter for 6x26 Enco Knee Mill

[tmate3]

Finished fabricating the frame for lifting the head off my Enco 6x26 mill. After I have installed the riser in the mill, I will widen the frame a bit, mount casters on the bottom, and use it as a mini shop crane. Unlike a lift table, which must have the load lifted onto it in the lower position, I will be able to have this rig straddle the load while it is on the floor, lift it and move it to a bench or cart, straddle it, and set the load down.

Didn't take much fabricating skill, but it should give my back some relief. Guess I could use it as a lat machine, come to think of it.
