This is an old drywall hoist what brand it is I have no idea. But it functions just fine. The support plates - where the drywall is layed on are all damaged. At some point quickly repaired with  “temporary” solution - some wire. Since my friend loaned me the hoist for free I decided to “fix” it for him. Of course replacement parts are not awailable anymore to buy new.

I made the plate 3mm thicker than original and side walls to 10mm thick instead of 4mm in order to have enough material to put in two  M4 bolts with nut on the other end  to make it more rigid. Bolts should help preventing the layers to delaminate. Aditional triangle backing it is not needed and would only complicate the design and then print.

Will see in next months if the upgrade will hold or not. 

I used Flashforge PLA with 3 perimiters 4 top and 4 bottom layers with  5% Gyroid infill. Printed on Aquila. Print time was 6 hours and used up 70 grams of filament.

Added pictures of original part and printed one. Perhaps there are others DIYers that need something like this. 

Sorry the photos  not being being fancy ones, my workshop is more a welding / grinding greasy place not a photo studio.
