I'm passionate about uploading quality and interesting videos for YOU, my audience.
What is my channel about? "Old lift machinery made interesting", old air-raid sirens, prehistoric alarm equipment - things that I find fascinating and I hope you will too. If "I" don't find it interesting - IT DOESN'T GET UPLOADED!
I always spend a lot of time editing my videos with animations, video in-sync with music and voice overs to make them this way. I'm also a perfectionist!
My moto - "Quality NOT Quantity" - spending a month editing a video is not a rarity!
But without you, I'm nothing here. Thank you so much for watching.

What a fabulous little lift Mr Matt, bottom mount, winding drum, superbly integrated modern controls, a remote counter weight, and it’s absolutely beautiful.

This lift is the best ever! The modernizations haven’t taken away it’s charm.

One of your most interesting videos yet, many thanks for uploading!

Awesome! Winding drum applications are sometimes hard to visualize but you did a great job with a perfect example.

very unique traction elevator with the hidden counterweight and 3 sheaves above the shaft. Until I saw part 2 never would have figured it was a basement traction machine. I have come across a modern day overhead traction with a "hidden" counterweight shaft. The hoist way is narrow.

great educational content, thanks for your dedication!

@thedim900conf 4 года назад

That was definitely unique. Really cool thanks for the video.

Love it! Thanks for another great video.

Fascinating, I expect the idea of the separate counterweight shafts was to maximise the space available in the main lift shaft as well as being more pleasing to not have an ugly Counterweight going up and down.

I love your videos! This is a great video. Thanks for sharing! Hope to meet you someday.

Thx 4 explaining - you may remember the old bottom drive lift with its counterweight in a seperat shaft I filmed. Was wondering why they didn't just used a usual motor, now I know why ;)

Very interesting and unusual design. Thanks for the video, Matt.

This is so interesting and exciting! Awesome presentation of the details!

Really really interesting Thank you 🙏

Nice bit of kit, with a sympathetic upgrade. It's an unusual arrangement although not unique. I would think that there is a lot of rope wear due to the drum drive wrapping and divertor pulleys required. Great video Matt !

Very neat way to conceal the counterweight! It's tucked away into it's own little shaft. The downside, it's hard to inspect eventhough it has an inspection door at the bottom floor. Typical architects solution, neat but not very practical. We have a similair corner shaft along the stairs in our own house, the plumbing downpipe from the bathroom is hidden there but it makes the stairs more narrow as it's a stair with bottom corner. In dutch houeses space comes at a premium, the toilet is also located under the stairs...... the downpipe has a short conncection. I'd imagine it be difficult to install a counterweight in such a narrow shaft that's very inaccessible.

Great couple of videos Matt. Very interesting. I think the smaller diversion pulleys are called vibrating sheaves? Maybe that’s an Americanism but I’ve seen them called that a few times. Again, great video.

One of the best vids. Very interesting lift. Really the went nuts to install the lift in such small place. VERY CLEVER. As others sadi, modernization didnt took the character out. But this has to be with such a confined space, that other solutions wont fit or require building modifications. I think it is on France some parts (historc buildings) are not allowed to carry modifications, so you came with crazy solutions like that that are really unique. Not the place for the average generics. I would prefer not VFD, just let the motor as is. Realys would have been fantastic.
