It's a elevator rescue in a blind shaft with heavy rigging (griphoist), metal cutting on rope (plasma cutter and saw), and a pick-off.

For those that have a grip hoist you know the box it comes in is very tight. We had a new box made to prevent the jack-in-the-box effect. The box can easily be used to move other equipment as well.

Getting the Griphoist back in the box is a bigger challenge than operating it. It's kind of like a jack-in-the-box.
