I pick things up and put them down. Humans moving things from one place to another is as old as our species. With a little bit of math, metal, and some rope, people figured out long ago how to do this with a lot less effort. Pulleys are a unique collectible with a strong (no pun intended) history.

Stay Hip and Humble!
