I vote Hand Winch. As much sa we all expect to see cool gadgets in this Brewhut, the simplicity of the task at hand requires nothing more.

I have a 3 tier system and attached a 650 lb winch to raise my boil keggle for increased head height when draining. It does the job easily. As for a safety, you can do it but those winches are a pretty basic design and if they fail, you almost always have indications that it's coming and they are not catastrophic.

The trim is started, the siding is caulked, and it's painted. Tomorrow I hope to get the rest of the trim done and a good portion of the roof finished. The remaining trim will be white.

KISS. (Keep It Simple Stupid, or Stupid Simple- take your pick). Looking good Yuri! Wish I lived near you, I would have the roof done for you so you could focus on the inside goodies

The roof has been the biggest pain in the ass! Actually, it's not the roof, it's the wind. Every time I think I'm going to get some work done, the wind picks up to 30+ MPH. Today might be better...but I'm not counting on it.
