In this video I build a mini porch lift to attach to my grandparent's deck. This porch lift will allow them to bring items into their home without struggling to walk them up the ramp or stairs with a cane or having to install a full size wheelchair lift. Of course, this lift can be used by anyone for a plethora of lifting applications from a multi-level deck lift to a commercial dumb waiter. Max lifting capacity is approx. 100 lb.

2’x2’ (610x610x3mm) mild steel plate

1x1” (25x25mm) steel angle, ⅛”(3mm) thick...32”(812mm) required for carriage PLUS 2X the lift height, ex: my lift height = 72”, so total needed was 32+(72x2) = 176”
