drywall lifter - max height
Hi I'm Mike from Broadway Lift & Equipment Co. that Steve1234 mentioned. I found this forum and thread by accident while using Google to check on some advertising.
Anyway just wanted to throw in a little info on these drywall lifts. Although the lifts in this price range are going to be Asian imports, just like US made products there are different levels of quality in Asian manufacturing.
Our drywall lifts sell for $185 and have a weight of 110 Pounds. There are other units out there in the 90-98 pound range that sell for as little as $125. Same overall size, but thinner gauge steel. We stay away, and suggest you stay away from these units as well.
If you are going to buy a drywall lift, ask the seller for the weight before you purchase it. This is generally a clue as to it's quality. In our experience if the factory skimped on the gauge of steel to save manufacturing costs, there's a good chance they skimped in other areas of the manufacturing process as well.
Thanks for your business and the mention Steve. I'm not sure if posting my contact info here is ok with the moderators, but I would be happy to do so if it's acceptable.
Thanks, Mike

) if the scaffolding does not clear the underside (or the scaffold would have to max out at just under 8' - which I think is not the case, from what I've rented anyway). But - I've been using these "beams" as scaffolding (a few 2x12's running perpendicular across the them makes a nice working platform - that's how I'm doing the insulating right now) 
) and I think the framing is overkill if anything.
