  • One Person "Garden Fence Panel Hoist" ( recycled from my old conservertory roof)#f
    #howtomake #howto #fencing
    I made this during last winter, just got around to trying it out.
    re-purposed aluminium, from when i renewed my conservertory roof last year
    I have a spare panel i use when maintenance required to my fencing, old one out, spare one in, then repair / treatment, then reifit. move on to the next one, all without having to rely or ask for help to lift out
    Just showing my way of getting around a problem, suppose it could be made from timber.
    thanks for watching
    a sub, like & share greatly appreciated.

    I knew there must be a way to do this job on your own. Just got to buy a conservatory and remove the roof. I already have the little Halfords hoist from about 50 years ago and still use it. Well done as usual. 👍

    Wow! One word, ok, two words…… “bloody clever”. Definitely a great success. Can’t imagine how you can possibly remove and replace slotted fence panels on your own any other way. 👏👏👍😀

    Worked well Kev. Some good lateral thinking. I have a very similar cheap rope hoist with nylon wheels and cord. We used it to lift a 6 cylinder GM motor out of a vehicle, which was way over it's load limit and sketchy as hell. It did it, but had to watch out for rope burn lowering it as there's no brake control. Never again :) Cheers Rob

      I'll let you into a little secret, I have been tidying up a bit and found under aĺl the rubbish a hard surface, I googled it and it seems it's called a floor.
      I might even have cleared a little bench space enough for the granite surface plate I bought 5 or 6 months ago!
