I had to repot a large plant, so I built a lifting device for it!

I have a large monstera plant that grows up three connected climbing rods. I had to repot this large plant, but since it is quite heavy, I came up with this lifting device that allows me to elevate the plant.
I uploaded the files, including the source files, so you can adapt the device to your needs.

This device was part of a video on my YouTube channel. You can see it in more detail there!

The gear wheel is not necessary, by the way. I initially wanted to lift the plant with a crank, but then realized that I needed a lock anyway and that I could lift it to the correct height by hand.
Therefore, you do not need to print the gear wheel and axle.

 

 

In the files, you will also find the connectors I used to connect the three climbing rods. These are screwed together with long M5 screws, allowing the plant to be raised with the help of the lift.

 

 

 

 

You will also need the following materials:
  • 12x M4 heat inserts
  • 4x M4x25 cylinder head screws
  • 8x M4x18 cylinder head screws
  • 8x M4 washers
  • 2x M6x615 threaded rods
  • 4x M6 nuts
  • 4x M6 washers
