Has anyone had success with storing a walk-behind leaf blower by hanging it on a wall? The darn thing takes up floorspace in the shed for 3 seasons and wondering if I can find some heavy duty brackets to hang it up (typical exposed 2x4 walls). Might take some help to bring it down every November, but that's not too bad a trade. Pros/cons? Advice appreciated. Thank you. Theodore

This might give you something to think about.

This particular thing is a game hoist. Other, heavier versions are block and tackle pulley systems. Some are self locking. Releasing the rope locks the weight in place. You might need to tie the lift rope off on other versions. Chain hoists are made to lift heavier loads.
Quite a few years ago I saw a Youtube video where a guy stored his snow blower by putting a pulley in the rafters in his shed and hoisting the machine up out of his way. The devil would be in the details.
