Same here. Been looking all over the internet for a gantry like that with the 4x4 holding up the steel i-beam on top. The best is it looks easy to assemble and disassemble for storage

I have been looking for a good a frame hoist that can be taken apart and stored. Where did you find the one in the picture? Or did you make it. That is a real good looking set up.

Thanks

Thanks,

I designed it and made it myself. None of the commercial ones are tall or wide enough. I used a w6x12 and had the end plates plasma cut.

I have an engineering firm, and can provide stamped drawings and the NC files for the end plates so you could get them cut at your local steel vendor.

This one is good for around 3000 lb. I initially had it in my driveway at my old place, but I took it down and set it back up on casters in the new shop.

Most people here have the means to deal with something this size, but it takes some doing to get it assembled and uprighted.

I think my steel costs were about $250 including the beam, and the 4x6's were maybe another $50. Bolts another $30.

Anybody that's interested pm me and we'll work something out.
