    what was the end cost of your project?

    • @oldretiredguy
      @oldretiredguy Місяць тому

      It has been a while. I believe that I have $3500 invested. A large portion of the expense was due to the hydraulic cylinder needing to be rebuilt. Well worth the investment. I have since added a winch. The winch install is on the channel as well. It works so well to put up and take down radio and television towers. Thank you for watching.
