Hi all, I'm not experienced with DIY but I'm hoping I can avoid screwing this job up with a bit of advice.
I would like to hang a pulley system from my carport roof so that I can store my roof box in the roof space.
The problem is the rafters are at a 45 degree angle, which would greatly reduce the strength of an eye bolt.
I've attached an image showing the two rafters I would need to hang the pulleys from. The total weight would be about 25kg spread between the two rafters.
Do you think the rafters can handle the weight and what would be the best attachment to connect the pulleys with the rafters?
Any advice greatly appreciated!
