Cool lift... I'm going to build this lift.. maybe even 2 of them.. one right handed and one left handed.. but I doubt that it would work for me ... I don't have a steel file cabinet to bounce my balls off of..

Can you make this lift higher? provided that there is more torque for the motor.
Reply 9 years ago on Introduction
Of coarse you can, the motor is strong enough, I think. But than you have to make another crank. One crank for two arms.

Great lift! Arms look chaotic, but always go to the right place...nice on the synchronization. :-)

Thanks man, yes the synchronization with the chain is the most difficult part..
