The cinder hoist is in and looks pretty good if I do say so myself. It wasn't too hard to install.
A template comes with the hoist. The instruction sheet says how to place it.
I drew an outline with a black magic marker.
I cut the the sand mat out
Then drilled four holes in the corners big enough for my jig saw. Then I made a mess.
Next up was removing ties form the track that will go over the hoist pit. This is needed to make the track fit into the slot on the hoist.
The hoist is inserted into the hole
The track is placed into position
I use cork roadbed so I needed to place some under the hoist to make everything look good.
This is one beautiful cinder hoist.
