That first use of a swage block is very rewarding isnt it, I have a somewhat rare 276lb alldays and onions one that I cherish....I also had to set up a winch to move mine (also to turn it for using the edges) Ive got a 2" pipe on the ceiling that its attched to so I can move things round a little bit...a nice swing arm like that would be awesome but my walls are not strong enough to take that kind of pressure. there was a sword of damaclese moment just as you went to get in the car lol...but all good that works ...its going to come in handy for all sorts of things. Thanks for sharing

With all the time and work involved, I'm not sure you wouldn't have been better off using a tripod and chain pulley or block and tackle., which have the added benefits of being both portable and being able to store easily inside and out of the weather. Your crane, while useful, is stationary and also a future maintenance project, requiring greasing up and painting... That said, it was well done.

Excellent job!! Really like that crane. You really need a pickup truck, LOL. The shop is fantastic!! Still haven't set up the line shaft yet in my shop. Got the Fairbanks Morse engine running good though, but now I'm unsure if I want to use it to run the line shaft instead of an electric motor.🤔

I cringed when you were pushing on the file to use as a lever to move the swage block, I thought, if it snaps, with your forward motion it would rip your wrist open. I'm sure your well aware that files are brittle. Always work safe.

If you add a single pulley block above the hook or get a hook with a pulley, then attach the end of the line at the pulley directing the line down, you will reduce the line load by 1/2 and it will be much easier to lift that load. The speed of lifting will be 1/2 of what this is tho. You might consider replacing that rope with some wire rope to lessen the chance of line breakage and dropping a load.

The thing that got me really worried is the bottom mount, that stud didn't look too solid :-[ If it tore out under that load, not only the block would go through the car but you'd be kicked in the nuts/guts by your own bracket!

dad was a master Machinist. Over his life he built a Schaefer using a crankshaft out of an old truck and many other things. One year he made a automatic hacksaw that cut on the push stroke but he made it that way this is some good content thank you.! My grandfather also bought everything he could get at auctions and had all the stuff in barns at one time I can still smell the grease and the iron

A three ton capacity steel rope would certainly be an advantage here. I was half expecting to see the block dropping and taking out the floor pan of the boot.

if ya add 4 more pullies to make kind of a W shape it will reduce the load pull on the crank for you.
