Hoist or something for a blazer top

Has anyone created some type of hoist or something to lift your top off your blazer and keep it suspended there until you put it back on??? I don't have much room in my garage and wanted to see if anyone can give me ideas on how they store their top when their cruising topless. Thanks!!!

PM member BobbyK about this post as he rigged up a very impressive hoist to aid in removing his Blazer top.

I'm thinking about something like this (if I ever get the garage cleaned out)

if you search in yahoo for our years of blazers, i found at least 3 personal websites where people had drawn up plans for this... one of them was BobbyK's... another one had an electric winch and another used a hand crank...
