    Huh?!?

    Whoda thunk an engine hoist would lift that high? I never tried to go that far. I might have to try it, just for future reference.

    Well done thinking outside the box a little.

    Yea it just kept on going up, needed another 3in on one end so I called my little brother to come help, he done the lifting while I done the positioning. My back is like bubble wrap, certain positions and it will pop and I'm out of commission for weeks. So I now call backup ha

    Two 14"×2" x 24' beams are holding this roof 8' out from support wall. No sagging for two years now.
