Forklift Mast Converted Into Shop Elevator
Larry Stephen, Martinsville, Ill.: He turned an old forklift mast into a heavy-duty shop elevator by mounting it along one wall and building a platform onto the mast in place of the forks. He uses it to ride up to the up-per level of his shop. The elevator is con-trolled by electrically-powered hydraulics so a simple electric switch is used to move it up or down. Makes it easy to retrieve parts or other equipment from the upper storage area.
