Backyard Rope Tow
Backyard Rope Tow
(OP)
Hoping to find some help on how to size a motor for a backyard rope tow. I would like to design a system that can either run on a small gas engine or an electric motor. Any pointers on where to start are much appreciated.
Many Thanks!

I built a ski lift on a pretty steep hill using wire rope --its about 1000' long and runs on a 10HP lawn tractor engine -- the details are on the website listed -- send me a message if you have any questions and I'll be more than happy to help out. chris.

Thanks for your response. I visited the site you listed and could not find what you were referring to. If you could point me in the right direction it would be much appreciated.
