Reply to "Help on Pulley System to Lift Train Table"

For my 6x12, I did two things: 

1) I added pulleys attached to the ceiling joists, 1 foot beyond each corner.   The cable simply threads over the existing pulley wheels in reaching the new pulleys.  That got me the 6' width.

2) To make the 12' length, I extended the axle connecting the two end bridges.   That took some "engineering" - I purchased a steel square (hollow) 1"(?) rod to extend the length, from Home Depot.

Its been "up" for about a dozen years now.   I park my Mustang beneath.
