I'm considering a bridge crane or trolley hoists for my shop. Never used them myself but they look like the ticket for handling timbers in a modest shop.
If you have experience with this equipment let me know if a bridge crane works as good as it looks or if a couple of strategically placed trolley hoists will do just fine.
Specs and considerations...
Shop space: 24' x 40' (12' ceiling)
No forklift on site to load/unload
Thanks in advance.
