Need a place to store larger items in the garage? Bored with using old fashioned ladders? This could be for you...
ROPE I USED: amzn.to/2EHBbWR
EYE BOLT: amzn.to/2CzWpQq
UPDATE OCT 2015.
I ended up with 10 pulleys total. I put numbers (3" stickers) on the ceiling beside the eye bolt, and another number down by the release area... that way I wouldn't get mixed up which one I needed to release with the spaghetti of rope... - Sport

It was really refreshing to see your style of video. So many youtubers these days use the same techniques and I'm glad I got to see your unique take and idea as well!
Thanks for the feedback! I just wish I had more projects.. or just got round to more projects maybe...
Nice system and nice video.
I recently had a 100' spool of air hose I needed to hoist out of the way like this. When I priced all the rope and hardware, I found that one of those commercial bicycle hoists was a cheaper solution. I used the bike hoist and found that it came with a very effective rope locking mechanism that operates well and holds the load. I think I'd have had to fabricate that myself as I don't know where else I could have got one.
Thanks for sharing.
That's WAY too simple, and costs a fraction of ceiling mounts - fantastic!! I was looking at the various ceiling lift options, but the complexity of mapping out studs to mount the pulleys and hardware etc... Then, of course, your pal Murphy - when he kicks in from ceiling height - it's all over for the box!
Now all I need to do is carve out some wall space.
probably the best edited build video I've seen love it thank you
Good stuff! I did something similar to store my pool vacuum hose, I hoist it up with pulleys in my small 8" x 10" shed. It's completely out of the way and does not take storage space on walls.
Best video how-to I've seen in a long time. No fluff, just clear concise 'see it, do it'. Great for learners like me who have to see it first then can do it. Hope you are sponsored or soon will be.
Great video. Love the eye bolt dance
I really like the way you edited this video together. Thanks.
First artistic how-to video I've seen (and I've seen LOTS). Nice! And fun too. A bit more detail on how the ropes and pulleys were rigged would be helpful.
Crisp! Great video all the way around!
Great solution and awesome editing!!
Nicely done, all around.
Well done on both the project , as well as the stop motion video.

Yes, good idea and not a lot of hype and excessive talking making the video too long. Thank you!
You had way too much fun making this video lol I love it
I totally need to do this... AWESOME VID!
I can only imagine having to screw something in a little bit... Then take some footage... Then a bit more... Then more footage... And so on.. haha
Ha! I have it dialled in pretty well now - I keep the camera rolling, and just put in the clips where I'm not visible.... "i" "o" "e" repeat in shortcuts in FCPX
original tutorial style I like it..props on being creative
+Vince Usner Thanks for the feedback. It was a fun project.
This is great video, I made a similar setup in my garage so that I could raise and lower the hard top off my wife’s Jeep by myself. Your channel is awesome starting to watch through your videos. I gave you a thumbs up and a SUBSCRIBE! Keep the videos coming
Great video... Informative and entertaining... love it!!
Wow man awesome video. Makes me want to build something epic like that for my future kids that aren’t here yet.
Nice video made me feel like i was back in the 90'
Cool Vid! have hoisted many things! Only tip is that the hardware store blocks (pulleys) are trash and not particularly inexpensive. Can get way less friction and way less work demand with some good stuff from Selden or Harken. Plain bearing series or ball bearing if you want to be fancy
Dude I love the way u clipped this together! Still rocking in 2024, going to be raising up my 10’ pontoon raft
How could I not like a video that made that little cutie so happy, lol. Good, simple video.
Looks to be a simple yet effective solution to garage clutter.
I like the self driving hardware. Lol. Very good video.
Thanks for posting it
👍
Thanks Dick Head on over and subscribe.
This is awesome... Thanks for sharing
Very nice. Simple and to the point
THIS IS AWESOME. Thanks for posting this!!!
+Cat T thanks for watching!
Well, this didn't exactly help me with my project making a hoist for multiple kayaks, but the video is definitely a cool way of presenting information. Well done :-)
tomek thanks for watching, and good luck with the kayak hoist!
muy buena idea y excelente edicion del video.
Very good idea and excellent animation of the video. plap plap plap
Good idea! I also dig the song.
The staple in the end of your 2x4 for holding the price tag reminds me. My cousin is blind in one of these tiny bits of metal. Launched by a table saw while ripping a 2x6. Remove them and wear safety glasses!
Extremely well done video, short and to the point. Great ability and artistry shown in making this video. What ever the cost its the pleasure you derive from custom made stuff. Thanks for sharing.
Yunus Ebrahim Thanks for the comment! Appreciate the feedback.
Thanks for your video from Korea
new supporter from Pusa studios. showing your channel some love i left a like full watch and smacked the bell. great channel, have a great night
excellent video!
The video was a treat
Think I'll try it to hold a kayak. Thanks
Very Nice Idea
Thanks 😊
Great video editing!!! ;)
Thanks. I was looking for a storage system for my garage pulleys. :)
Clever :)
No muss no fuss video. I like it. :-)
GREAT VIDEO
You must be sailor! Great video!
nice job on editing
Love it!
wow love it.
Very nice!!
if you don't create something, anything, with your hands and your head as you age youre a candidate for senility in older age . ive got so many projects in my retirement now, I have to have a roster, and you wonder how you ever found the time to work. woman? what women? this is a great idea to get those MTBs. and touring bicycles out of the way. you can also use the pully idea to drive your truck in and lower your canopy onto the truck and off again. loved the video thankyou it was great
Brian Trend Wise words Brian! Thanks for watching
This is all great, what would people suggest if I am trying to have something similar to this but have it sit a bit more flush with the ceiling?
Good video!!
Great idea!
Very nice video. Gave me a laugh at the end
Instead of cleats; I think using the Nit ize Camjam XT would be much simpler and faster; or better yet a Schaefer Cam. Thanks for the ideas.
Wow...good idea
Awesome plan and execution. A quick question if I may: In your set up you are not gaining any mechanical advantage as you would achieve in a simple pulley system, correct? Your intention was just to hoist up odd shaped, light objects, out of the way and not necessarily to gain a mechanical advantage right?
Correct, just a simple, multi pulley system to lift light(ish) objects out of the way...
Awesome vid! I am working on a storage Solution for roof storage box. What is the make of the 3 wheel bicycle @ driveway?
thanks
Thanks for watching! It's an "Avigo Tri-Force 12" tricycle" My 4 year had a blast on it.. so fun, get's lots of looks... I think Toys R us, though I can't seem to find it online now.
In fact it was Canadian Tire... If you're in Canada...
that's some funny shit!!! I love it!!
Thank you
🍻 stop motion build 10/10
Perfect
all those heavy objects just hanging there is comedy heaven for a three stooges set up
Good video ! You weren't drilling through those 2X4's into the concrete, were you?
I think there should be 1 more line of safety to secure the ropes - especially with kids. I was wondering if there if something like the rope lock that's on mini-blinds, or something that rock climbers use in case the rope slips.
Nope, no concrete, 2x4's (1x3's?) were secured to studs.
Thought about possible slippage.. Touch wood, pretty sure so far. I do secure by more than enough figure 8 ties.

Dude, you should be making movies. Spot on camera angles, animated hardware fixtures and set to good background music. Paramount Pictures is calling.
ken bosco ha thanks, I am a videographer and editor.... no Hollywood movies yet though
Boa dica!
obrigardo!
Great music!
Despite the audio and I’m not really knocking it. This was an amazing video. Thank you so much. Did you make that song? Tight.
Tight indeed. Unfortunately it used to be more of a banger song with better tuning to the video, but it was copyrighted, so I had to change to this CZcams song.
@@hamstergraphics sounded home made! Im an electronic musician and it could be a banger! Ima steal it make it better
Excellent video. What's the piece between the eyehook and pulley called?
Carabiner
@@SteveNorrisTV thanks!
Neat idea......but what kind of reverse trike is that in the background at the very end of the video?
Thanks. Yeah, it's a head turner that one... It's a Avigo Tri-Force 12" tricycle... Got from Canadian Tire here in Canada, a couple of years ago.
hamstergraphics Awesome. Thanks for the info.
Hi! Great video! I’m wondering how much weight your system could hold. Is it 5 lbs per pulley or how might I figure that out? I want to be able to pulley up my Christmas Trees & then slide them into my garage storage rack.
No idea TBH. I've hoisted some pretty heavy things in the past. Christmas tree doesn't sound too heavy.
@@hamstergraphics 55 lbs for the bigger tree 🎄
Been there, done that. I built a pulley system to store my mountain bikes like this.
Get the video uploaded man!
Very good video, who is the music by?
Very good idea my friend
Ty
wondering if this can hold bikes.
Thank you . Showww.
Where did you get the pulley blocks at? I'm not seeing that is similar on Amazon that isn't about 7.00 to 10.00 each and industrial grade.... Thanks!
Matt Hallett I think I read in another comment that he got the from Lowes hardware.... I know they have them there (or home Depot should) but they do cost a fair amount :-/
Depending on what you are looking to do with it, apparently Amazon sells bike lift pulley systems for (potentially) 2 for $20 (quote based on what I've read from others online - you should at least be able to get one for about $20), but it isn't intended to hold more weight than a bike.
I'm mainly trying to figure out the best way to hang a push lawnmower from the ceiling, so I figure (only because of limited budget) maybe I'll Google and see if you can buy pulleys cheaper online from some type of company's site that might be more likely than Amazon to have them at a nice discount (Hurm...Maybe even ebay if someone bought a bunch and didn't use them? Not sure how trustworthy it would be, lol)...
I do really love the way this was done - both the pully system and the video! I just need to shop around and see if there's a cheaper way for me personally... Great idea and design though! Thanks for posting this video! :-D
Thanks for the comment - Yep, Lowe's was where I got the pulleys.. It does add up when you're getting a bunch...
I just hooked my push mower on the wall. Mounted the hook high up so could hang on the handle, with the base of the mower then being around head height.

Best song 😚
So I need hoist a 45lb Canoe you think this is possible for 73.2 ft?
Weight shouldn't be an issue, but you'll likely need a different system so you can pull both ends at the same time....
Have any ideas on a system ?
Consider a dual hook bike pulley storage is just $9 at menards, this seemed quite expensive.
Edward Tse correct, but it is a 10 pulley system, more than just one bike... But yes, it's not the cheapest option.
Could you tell me which pulley you purchased for this project?
Not 100% sure, would be similar to this www.lowes.ca/product/chain-accessories/national-hardware-n195-784-3211bc-swivel-single-pulleys-in-zinc-plated-893993
How did you get the fasteners to screw themselves in?
Electromagnetic forces.
lol
...I'm such a dummy..I need more detail..trying to pull my bike up, and then flat to the ceiling..I can't lift it to a hook (bad shoulder)..
What kind of rope is that?
"Braided Polypropylene Rope" about $20 for 100 feet, sold at home improvement stores..
This seems like a somewhat expensive solution to a cheap problem.
You're right... It's not an essential solution, it was just a fun project.. and didn't break the bank...
hamstergraphics great idea, where did you get the pulleys?
Kevin Miller Lowe's home improvement store(Canada)
first world problems...
silverdoggg I'll take that over other problems for sure..
Where is the part list???
I'm here in 2022, great video. Thank you.
vid didn't teach me what i thought. but good as vid
haha... thanks for watching...
👌🏾💪🏾
Nothing new here this system was used for decades since Victorian times for drying clothes over stoves in kitchens. They were called drying pulleys, Victorian pulleys or maidens.
Nope. It’s new. I invented it. Pulleys and leverage. That was me.
For some reason it remains me, an 80s video...
I do like the 80's!
Thinking a little Peter Gabriel, Sledgehammer??LOL
my kids is now a pancake, thank you
Sending syrup.
I don't understand doing it this way. Add at least one more pulley on each rope (a block and tackle setup) and create mechanical advantage. The way you have it there, anything over 50 pounds is going to be unwieldly to manage.
There's nothing to understand... I juts built something from my head... I didn't look into best pulley methods, and will not be hoisting over 50lb.... Just a fun project that's all....
@@hamstergraphics You're right. Absolutely right. I overcomplicate things. Doing something, like these hoists, just for the fun of it did not come to mind. A well done project.
nice editing, however the design of the pulley system is flawed. the ceiling eye bolts are the weak link. you cant hoist anything with weight or it'll fail.
music is annoying and I need an explanation about what is being done and why!!!
Stephen James 😂 I failed you. I apologize
*Muting intensifies*
☠☝️
we have solutions
What size pulley did you use
Hey Mike - Prety sure they are 3/8 pulleys
