    Default New type ball lifter

    I will be sporting a new concept in ball lifting,,which will be jam free ,very affordable, and I am almost certain ,,compact enough to retro ito even exzisting cabs(machines already wall built)
    Have to here back from the patent aliens first
    Am very excited to get this off the ground
    I started reading the different ways people(diferent posts ) were trying to get balls UP,,,The chochalate fountain was one of the most funny I read
    Not making fun,,,but getting those little critters up in an orderly fashion is no easy task
    What would a ball bearing factory do,,,,HMMMMMM

    I would really like to see the idea once you can release the information. I was thinking of doing something with magnets which probably sounds crazy.

    So far today I installed rheostat on drive motor(working prototype) and achieved variable lift speeds,,will time tommorrow
    I jumped the gun stating they would fit on exsisting wall mounts,,couldnd get aroun my french cleat (wall mount) and up to top without a redo on cab.
    I figure later to incorrparate machine ,lifter ,,,and then retro cab. to house all.

    I had thought ,,along time ago about a magnetic conveyor system, but after playing around with about ten balls and some mags,,I found the balls to get magnetized and after a few rolled around on the carpet they picked up all kinds of nasties (we have alot of iron ore red dirt inE.T) Grit in other words

    Thanks for sharing. I can't wait to see what you have come up with. How affordable are you thinking it will be. I too, have been looking into building one, but if one is affordable for my limited budget, I would gladly purchase (or build, depending on how you are releasing this) one.

    Keep up the good work and keep us informed!
