RE: open stacker project

Greg,

If you take the axle idea for the pivot point and you make it a drive axle with a differential, then you can rig up a driveshaft, a gear reduction transmission, and a hand crank - no hydraulics, no winch, no electric motors or power source other than you manually spinning a crank. Simple, reliable, and fun.
