    Hanging inside the house

    I thought about putting a metal hook in the rafters of the basement. then discovered 250 lbs is too much for most store bought hooks. If this has cropped up before I am sorry there was too much to search on. How would one do this safely?

    Eye bolts in the ceiling beams do the trick for me.
