I have the Air/Hydraulic cylinder mounted.
Now on to the hanging end.
I'd like to get verification that I'm thinking straight...
I'm going to modify the end of the boom so that the chain hangs 'free' when UP, so to say.
Looked at several images online and I don't like the chain coming out and bending over the edge of the tube.
Am thinking I should cut out a notch.
The x-hatch white area is what I'm thinking about removing here shortly.
More to follow later, they're are a couple of minor 'cons' to this HF unit, nothing show stopping though.
Thanks for looking.
