<div dir="ltr">My dad built one similar to the eBay pictured one.  I wanted to add a couple comments:
<div><br></div>
<div>(1)  Remember the physics of looped pulleys - they create leverage so you can more easily lift the top with just your hands.  Yes, the electronic lift is very nice.  But don't feel you absolutely need it.   Just a simple showing of how to add more pulleys for leverage:  <a href="http://www.the-office.com/summerlift/pulleybasics.htm" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">http://www.the-office.com/summerlift/pulleybasics.htm</a></div>
<div><br></div>
<div>(2)  If you are in earthquake country, make sure the sling and it's hooks won't collapse or slide too much if it starts swaying around.  I don't have a good answer for which one does that.  I know my dad did something, but I have the hardtop resting against the wall now, and not hanging. <br></div>
