I found this OLD Wright Screw Hoist just sitting on the ground at an abandoned farm. It looked AWESOME & was begging me to take it back to the shop, so I took a chance on it! It was all seized up, and I wasn't sure if it was broken or not, but figured I could bring it back to life either way!!!
A screw hoist is a type of chain fall, and is used to lift or lower heavy things vertically up or down as the need arises!
I'm glad I took the chance on this Wright Model 45, because it turned out to be a VERY nice hoist! It's rated to lift up to 2 Tons or 4000 lbs!
I'm excited to put it back to work here at Salvage Workshop! I've got plenty of heavy things that need moving, so expect to see it in MANY future videos as time goes on!
Watch as I fully disassemble it, completely clean it, give is a BEAUTIFUL paint job, put it back together, and then put it to the test on one of my new Anvils!
I really have NO idea how old it it, but now it's ready for another 100 years of work! (or however old it is)
I truly appreciate that you've taken the time to watch as I bring this Old Wright Screw Hoist back into usable condition here at Salvage Workshop!!
I'd love to know your thoughts on this project!
