Layout A/C Bi-directional Winch

[modelrailroadforums]

Layout: 4' x 8' 150-200 lbs

Question: Anyone who is using a layout lifting system (winch, etc.) I would appreciate advice on a type/brand/store/etc.

I hope to pay $50-125 for a winch that can raise AND lower my layout in the garage.

Do you have a Habor Freight near you?
http://www.harborfreight.com/2000-lb-capacity-remote-control-utility-winch-92860.html I don't think you'll find anything A/C for cheap this is DC but you could find a power source (batt charger or something)
They're pretty cheap and have useful modeling tools also (all china stuff of course)
