Warehouse delivering hoist
Due to the board by board building method I am using for this model, which includes cutting the strips, painting them unevenly to look weathered, then cutting to length and gluing to the structure - one at a time. After the boards are installed I use a single edge razor blade to scratch in wood grain. That is all still in progress. Meanwhile I have installed 2nd and 3rd floor delivery doors with a hoist at the top.
Below are several vintage photos of structures with delivery hoists.
I have tried to capture the look of these hoists. The hoists employ an I beam extending from the top of the top doorway. Inside is an electric motor to raise and lower the hook.

Howdy! This article couldn't be written much better!
Looking through this article reminds me of my previous roommate!
He continually kept talking about this. I will send this article to him.
Fairly certain he's going to have a great read.
I appreciate you for sharing!
