Hi - This is my first post to Tower Talk, but I have been reading the mail
for quite some time now. I have a couple of questions that I thought I could
get answered about the winch I would like to use on my home brewed Hazer I'm
building. My Hazer is the Tram type that travels on tracks up/down on one
face of a Rohn 25g tower. I would like some advice on where I could get a
simple worm gear type winch that I could power with a 1/2" drill motor. I
don't
want to use a ratchet type winch from which I received a broken thumb and
completely destroyed tri-band beam back in 1962. I've been told that I could
use a
winch with a automatic brake and it wouldn't freewheel if disengaged
accidentally, but I'm not familiar with this type.
Any information or help on where I can get a new/used type inexpensive worm
gear type winch will be greatly appreciated. Thanks for reading. Harold -
