Only thing I'll throw in is that it's really handy to have an electric winch with remote control - I've used a HF cheapie (typically $59.95 "on sale") with a wireless key fob remote control, locks when you let up, drove a 4x4 square steel pipe into the ground for anchor. Frees me to take a pry bar and help it along. For heavier loads, I just add another pulley and double the weight it can take.
In the basement, I ran a 12' piece of 3" ibeam from the scrapyard along the ceiling over my worktable, hung a HF electric trolley-winch on it, and used it to lift the mill-drill-lathe up over the table and past it and into position on its stand, and afterwards occasionally to lift heavy work and other machines (like a 30" brake/shear/slip role) onto the bench. It all worked great until the last time.... let me just say, I advise making SURE you have all the bolts out before you try to lift a machine off a stand embedded in concrete.
