Lifting Out the Engine

Pulley, chain, car engine,

Sounds like a recipe for disaster, right? Well, actually, it's not. My Dad's working on a car at this very moment, where there's something wrong with the engine. So what they planned to do was to lift it with a pulley and chain. The pulley is hanging from a sturdy cashew tree branch, and all they had to do was tie the chains to the engine and use your arms and legs to lift it up. Then they tied the chains that they used to pull it into the air onto another cashew tree branch. And they work on it that way. It was pretty weird looking. Right now they're lowering it back down into the hood. It's a really good thing the branch didn't break,

Signing off,
