Look into a 3000 lb or so 12 volt winch, you would be better off. Better control, less human work, and not having to reset everything every 10 feet.Was thinking of using a comealong to lower it. I do have some 3/8" chain, but no good way to control the descent of the chain (or ascent for that matter). Now I need to take a good look at my comealong to check that it will work that way!
Not keen on ropes. Had a 5/8" rope break on me. The spring back and whipping was astounding. After that I used chain.
