Robert
That looks like the fore runner to the "High Lift Jack", currently used by 4x4 drivers. Cheers Tony ![]()

Tony you are probably right. This jack was designed for grubbing stumps and standing posts. My grandfather with a couple of helpers stood posts that were 4' in the ground and 20' out when he built a hay shed. The horse draged the post to the hole, a crowbar was placed in the hole oposite to the bottom of the pole for the poll to run down then the pole was jacked up several times using falked sticks to prop it between jackings until it finally fell into the hole.

Hi I've just found this thread whilst searching for information on Bratt Colban winches. I have 2 of these to restore and was wondering if anyone has more information on them.

Hi Niels. I do have a spare one, but it is quite rough and possibly incomplete. I'll dig it out at the weekend and take some pictures of it.
they are heavy lumps so I'd have thought quite expensive to ship to Denmark. Regards Bob

Hi Niels. I had a look at the two large Bratt winches today and took some pictures of the spare one. It does have parts missing, and is quite rusty. Having had a thought about it I am prepared to sell both winches. Please PM me if you are interested. Here are some pictures of the spare one.
Regards Bob
