Reply to: Trailer mounted gin pole

[quote=charlescarlis]Where are the images, again? If I build another Gin-pole bracket/multi-use thing, I'd: 1) Add a ladder of sorts to make it easier to get on tramp while trailered. 2) Add a few (4?) u-bolts to aid in tying down miscellaneous stuff. I don't need it now, but I can see how, on a long trip I'd load the trailer more with a pop-up tent, etc. 3) Use an automotive, single stage polyurethane instead of the "implement enamel" from Tractor Supply. The enamel actually sprayed and leveled very nicely and easily. Very nice gloss when using the hardener (which is a must), but the paint is still "soft" compared to a nice poly. But, you have to use a respirator, etc., sonot for everyone. Since I'm officially locked down - except for work (do safety work for UT hospitals, which is NUTS now), I'll go through my rig, finish the set up, take pics and a video. Might help others with ideas, as I'm new at this and dreaming the stuff up with what I see on-line, etc. I'm SURE I'm doing something wrong, but I do know a little bit about rigging safety, but ironically not much about setting up sailboat rigs. I like to rely on mechanical advantage, safety features, etc. that keep others and myself out of the line of fire.[/quote]
