[QUOTE="skidsteer.ca, post: 2960, member: 307"] Jim We have made a lifting boom simular to this for use on the skidder blades. But instead of making the pole lift the whole load, we stuck it a little more horizontal, (say coming out from the bottom of your QA plate, up and out at say 70 degrees instead of 90) and then run two 5/16” chains, one from each top corner of the QA plate, out to near the end of the boom. This takes alot of the sideways force off the pipe, with the chains there you have more of a endways compression force on the pipe, making it much stronger. Ken [/QUOTE]
