my team has been experimenting with winches from day one but have not been very lucky so far. first we tried using 2 globes driving one shaft. It should have had 150 lb/in. of torque but we could only get it 112 lb/in. at the shaft. after trying a few differant pulleys we got it to work but it was a little slower than we would have liked. then we started working with the van door motor which should have had 300 lb/in. at the shaft. we mounted the van door in a small transmission and tried it out but it stalled while trying to lift me, i weigh 140. we then tried the motor with a 2-1 reduction and it was very close to lifting me but could not do it. then finnaly we tried a 3-1 reduction and it was successfull but its a little slow. has anyone else had any success and if so could u tell me what motors your using or even better, post a picture?

thanks
