So, not really a DIY yet. I plan to alter it to function more along the lines of how I intend it to function... i.e. Install an electric winch. I think this is going to be an AWESOME addition to my brewery!
My company and department I work with now (for a few more days at least) got this contraption about a year ago. It's a bariatric patient trapeze. It is meant to slide under a hospital bed and allow a patient to grab the trapeze bar to reposition in bed. So, we had no use for this thing and are cleaning house... I mentioned I could use it and they told me to take it! It's got a 1,000 pound rating and is VERY sturdy. This is the exact application I hoped it would work for. It straddles the chest freezer perfectly and has enough height to add a small electric hoist and spreader bar to hoist 1/2bbl Sanke Fermentors in and out of the chest chamber. It sure will help save the wear and tear on my back!
