gin pole

gin-pole.jpgI found a piece of 2″ pipe to use as a gin pole out at the stables.  The gin pole is supported from 3 guy lines.  I put a 4:1 block and tackle on the thing and was able to lift the pole by hand up 3 feet to this old table top.  I intend to lift a little higher here,  then move the Gin Pole to the other end and finish the raising, while3-up.jpgthe base slides down into the hole.
