I don't feel like making these anymore! But Ill help you out.

110 volt winches are available at princess auto. I've been using the 440/880 lb model, single lined to 440. It is kind of fast, if one wanted to slow it down, go to double line 880 setting and will winch half speed, would be much easier on the rocker switch.

The vice grip clamps have 5/16" round stock nested in then welded of course, 2 rods on one side and three on the other.

One tidbit... when mounting the vice grip clamps, instead of welding solid to the table, drill a hole in the c-frame tale each side and bolt a very short length of chain, recommend our USA made wolf chain, and then use the tension bolt at the back of the vice grips and two washers, clamp on each side of bum of pelt.

I haven't done so myself but a custom shop I know has and they never rip the legs at all.
