Made from a garage door cable drum, garage door cable, brearing pillow blocks, 1" 0.120 wall tube, 9/16 shafting, and an amazon special awning roller. Its not sketchy at all, nope. Seriously though, don’t stand under it.

Nothing precise. I have tons of DIY nonsense in my garage, but when it came time to suspend storage from the ceiling, the consequences of it’s failing would mean significant damage to the ceiling, the contents, my car, and possibly the garage door. As long as you use sufficiently strong hardware and follow solid practices for how to mount things, it should be fine. Just not something I was wanting to do.
Fair enough. I’d be very concerned about mounting anything on the underside of the ceiling, because all the weight is pulling directly along the shaft of whatever fixing you use.
