Default Winch point in floor good idea.

Hi

Years ago I drilled a hole in the floor of my first shop, then drove a pipe through the concrete to flush with the surface, filled the space between the outside of the pipe and concrete with lead. I've used that for years to pull cars into the shop. I've used rope block and tackle, comalong, and just a block and cable to another vehicle.

When building my bigger shop cast another pull point in the floor that I've used the winch on my C60L winch to pull my C60S into the shop. All the efforts mentioned required lots of stops and starts to correct steering.

Your idea of a remote controlled electric winch just makes so much sense. One of those why didn't I think of it.

Cheers Phil
