Temporary Gantry

[Unisawyer]

If you need to lift, but not relocate a piece of equipment, here is a viable solution. Most DIY will have access to the materials required.

Don't own a shop crane?
Is space limited?

Thanks

Yes and managing to Get the gantry erected using a pair of ceiling jacks holding a beam against the ceiling can be the most tumultuous part of the task at hand

That was a pretty slick lift.
I can imagine, however, that there were a ton of hours lost fretting about the best way to do it and everything and anything that could have gone wrong.
Almost anti-climatic that it went so easily.

I find that hard to believe.
