Where would I find a pumpkin lifting ring and straps? What do they typically run?

go to pgpga.com and click on pumpkin lifters. I think the current rate is 150 bucks, but not entirely sure.

I'm with you, Steve. pgpga.com works on my machine, but the specific page with the lifting rings does not...

The lifter on bigseeds.com looks a little different than the others I have seen. Does it have a sinch strap around the bottom so you don't have to worry about getting your straps underneath the pumpkins?

michigan grower..i use the same setup as bigseeds.com,it does come with a bottom strap to tie all loop's together,but i use a 1/2" dia rope(it's easier to untie the knot)the top of straps hook on the chain hoist.
