Any of you rockstars use a gizmo like this to get your materials up on the roof when rooftop service isn't available?

If the guys in the picture were bare chested and in briefs with their packages hanging out, perhaps it would make sense. Not that I would buy one either way!

Doesn't look too useful, add a gas engine option and maybe. Electric is more headaches than it would be worth. I don't understand the half naked lady either, little immature.

Yeah. What do girls have to do with shingle elevators? I think it is quite inappropriate.

She is one of the "elevator girls". Go to the menu setting and there is a gallery. ?????

I've got a platform Hoist. I use it daily. Saves my back. It's about 10 years old now.

I've used and abused ladder hoists over the years. One job in particular comes to mind. I was sub-contracting and had to go pick up the materials in an old flat bed truck with wood side rails. The house had no drive way and was down a fairly steep hill. In a hole so to speak. We put all the connections we had on the ladder hoist, about 40 feet total and built a wooden support in the middle out of 2 x 6. Then instead of running the materials UP the ladder hoist, it was actually downhill to get them onto the roof. We built a wooden trash bin also and ran the trash uphill directly from the roof into the back of the truck. :S

Never used one. Can't see much use for it here Deep Down In Florida Where The Sun Shines Damn Near Every Day. The Houses here are mostly all neatly set in their places nicely developed and easy for the suppliers to load. B) :) :) B) Deep Down In Florida Where The Sun Shines Damn Near Every Day
