Lee's Lifting rings will be available this year BUT they will be called Jim's lifting Rings. Jim Morris, a pumpkin grower in Roosevelt, Utah will be making them. I will sew the straps for him. We took the 27" and 40" rings and straps and pull tested to over 5,000 lbs with no problems. The rings, straps and Dori Slings will be available in the near future. I will also sew Travel straps in 3 sizes for Eddy Z to secure your pumpkin while traveling. Straps are the new and improved version and come in 3 sizes, 36"x36", 42"x42" and 48"x48" across the square of the strap. Contact Eddy Z, (iceman) for details on these straps.

They are available in 3 sizes, 36x36 small,42x42 medium and 48x48 large. This measurement is in inches to the outside of the square of the travel strap. The latest design has an improved corner design to prevent damage to your pumpkin in transport to weigh offs.

Dori and I have been spending a lot of time looking for animals to photograph. We call it Perry's Roadside Photography. We take most of our pictures from the car. We have them printed on canvas and mounted in custom wood frames. We also have them available without a frame. Photos are of deer, elk, coyote, bobcat, big horn sheep and other "critter" we find in Utah, Colorado and Wyoming. If you are interest in our picture email me at lee@ccutah.com

I need to apologize to at least 2 growers that sent me emails last spring about lifting rings, travel straps etc. I just found their email in my junk mail a couple of days ago. I tried to transfer them to my inbox and they vanished into outer space. Somethings this old guy does, does not turn out as planed. My sewing machine is back up after being down for some time. If I can help you with pkn travel straps, 3" wide adjustable lifting straps or Dori Slings please email me at lee@ccutah.com I will try to do better this time.
