    I use a 4stroke water blaster motor with a “mate” post hole borer gearbox on it, the 25mm shaft easily accepts a Capstan drum

    Nice and quiet and easily snaps 500kg sash cord at just above idle

    It’s lifted many a deer 700m back up to the road. I have 3x rolls of cord at 250m per roll

    Very economical and quiet

    A big thankyou to BRADS for the gearbox
