Gin pole
Imagine you want to lift something really heavy, like a big log, but it's too heavy for you to lift by yourself. A gin pole is like a helpful friend that lifts the heavy thing up with you.
The gin pole is made of two tall poles, one standing up straight and the other leaning against it at an angle. They're tied together at the top with a rope or cable.
To use the gin pole, you attach the heavy thing you want to lift to a rope that hangs down from the top of the gin pole. Then you and your friend pull on the rope together, and the leaning pole supports the weight of the heavy thing while you lift it up.
Gin poles are often used in construction when building tall structures like buildings or bridges. They can help lift heavy steel beams or other materials up to higher levels safely and securely.
