That's exactly how I've done it in the past, it's tricky, but you don't fight the assembly. The lift does all the work. I've put up six of these years back before you tube was a thing for me. I would have filmed the build.
How did you have your scissor jack you were on supported at the base? Were you concerned it might tip over? In retro spec would a crane to lift the 1st piece, at least, or maybe the 1st 2 pieces together to start the process been easier? Where does the water go that comes off the hut go? I haven't seen anyone address this issue.
Good teamwork guys. Ill be watching closely since I plan on doing this also. Thanks!!!
Awesome! I just finished a Q-42 myself. Pro tip I used 3/8 diameter Phillips screwdrivers as drift pins. Works way better since you can go full depth.
Thanks! We actually ended up using a bench grinder and ground down our drift pins so we get a much easier fit.
I woulda at least tried assembling one of them and using that lift to bring it up in the air, but I like life on the wild side.

Had to put up our Qounset one piece at a time with just the two of use working on it.
Wow! Much respect! That had to be time consuming. But it's a labor of love!
Good luck on your build. I believe you got real lucky on some your roughing steps. Better lucky than rich.
How wide was your building
Found your video thank you so ☺
Helps me understand 😌 🙂
Nice job 👏👏👏
Yes you got it pull from the top.
Can anyone recommend those DuroSPAN Quonset Home Building kits off eBay? Or should I stick to a builder like Steelmaster?

I would have had the rope draped over the railing and back down to the ground so the help could pull and help you lift at the same time
Total no no using the scissor guard rails to support the arch.
We do that all the time what are you talking about?🤣🤣
Try a gin pole next time.
