You have got one kick azz start to a game room.

Here’s a few pictures of the lift/elevator I built to get my games up to my loft game room.

I’m a fabricator, so I built it in less then a day. Nothing to hard if you or a friend have a welder and can do simple framing. You’d have to cut a hole in the floor of the game room floor somewhere and mount the winch in the attic in the game room.

Lots of ways to do this style setup but this is just how I did it. It’s very easy to move pins and slots up and down now.

(I’ll put info with each picture explaining what your seeing, and where it’s at.)

Lift platform on ground floor

Lift platform at second floor height.

I just have a hole cut in the sidewall of the second floor to slide the games into the lift.

You can see the cables coming to all four corners of the platform. The cables feed up through the ceiling into the attic where the winch and cables and pullys are mounted.

Here’s the winch and cables in the attic.
Just one winch

8 pullys and four cables wrapping around the drum of the winch.

Lifts pins easy, sure beats the heck out of caring them up stairs
