I put together a plywood lift to easily lift plywood sheets onto my workbench.
I hadn't seen it done this way and thought I'd share since I'm very happy with it.
It is constructed in a 2-pulley configuration with the lower pulley having a ratcheting/locking mechanism to hold the position at any point but also easily released. The pulleys hang from a unistrut trolley mounted to the ceiling.
I like that the rope and pulley design is easy to stow out of the way and also quick and easy to put to work.
It made lifting 3/4" plywood and 3/4" MDF all day for a under-stair closet/cabinet build an easy task.
