[Shop-talk] hoisting heavy items

The nice barn that came with our new property in Kentucky has a large
loft that we plan on using for parts storage. Everything from fenders
to engine blocks and anything in between. I'm looking for ideas as to
what would work best for hoisting the heavier items up to the loft.
The hoist will be used inside the barn and will need to lift from barn
floor to loft floor about 10 feet or so. I used to have a chain fall
but it took SO long to perform that type of lift that I'm hoping
something better and faster can be found, preferably non-electric.
Any thoughts or suggestions on what might work?
Thanks!
Brad
