Just seems like the weight of the beams should be enough weight. People
talk about adding weights so it must be the right thing to do...



When the beams hit bottom the cable goes slack.


What would be the point of lowering any further than that?



Somebody please go back and reread my original post. I know where the
bottom is because I have marked the cables with electrical tape. The
problem is that: THE CABLES GO SLACK ON THE WAY UP. (Sorry... not yelling,
just restating the problem)
