Colt Case Ingersoll Garden Tractors

A fun little project with the lifting boom.

Building a swingset/play fort, and I need to lift this little playhouse up onto the platform, 5.5 feet high. The little house is very delicately built, so it only weighs 80 or 100 lbs. But you can't just grab onto it anywhere: you have to spread the lift across to opposing walls and pick it straight up, fairly even and level.
Lifting boom to the rescue!



Handy as a pocket on a shirt!

Looks like it works great! I’d much rather do that than lift stuff by hand!

That works really well Bob, You've got lots of reach with that setup. Thanks for sharing

That worked well . No dought your back is happier you used it .

Terrific job Bob. I was wondering how much weight do you have on the back of the GT? Harry

I have both rear tires filled to the top with RV antifreeze and about 400lbs hanging on the 3 pt hitch.
