I thought that I read an article about fitting a gantry crane in a workshop, probably a garage, in MEW, however I can't find it in the on-line indexes. Did I dream about this or was it in some other publication?

MEW 230, Harry Cosh described a simple workshop crane.

MEW 279 Roger Froud described a more complex arrangement, probably what you are thinking of.

Thankyou Neil, it was the one in issue 279 that I was thinking of, I had it in my mind it was earlier than that for some reason.
