- How I moved 28-foot-long 8x12” beams to build a timber frame pavilion for an outdoor kitchen.
The lift brand is Genie, owned by a company named Terex. Here's the Genie website.

I'm also a one man show and honestly this video is a true inspiration.
All I can say is WOW!❤
If I hadn't seen it, I wouldn't have believed it. This man is descended from ancient Egyptians. Liked and subscribed.
That hand crank lift is awesome, never seen one before! I was planning on builing a gin pole setup myself, but that lift is such a sweet setup! May have to reconsider, it would be much easier on my body
very cool thank you. another good solo safety protocol might be to try and avoid walking under the beam when it's just suspended up in the air. annoying to walk a few extra steps to the side and around, but that one time a pin fails at the wrong time the annoyance would be worth it
Just made a wheeled beam dolly today. Was too expensive to buy one. Made it out of wood and a couple wheels. Helps a lot.
Nice!
Love it a man after my own heart.
Doesn't make excuses just gets it done.
Great Pavilion
@thomas abel Much appreciated.
That's a great setup. Was wondering how to achieve something similar. Thanks for the really helpful video.
Amazing work, glad you were wearing a helmet.
would you please name the tools you are using to move and lift. these tools are rare in my contry. thanks great video
absolutely amazing.
Awesome video!
Thank you I am working a similar project, now I know the tools I need
Awesome
Hilariously easy with the lift compared to so many other methods.
great job!
Thanks!
What is the wheeled beam mover called? Thanks for sharing this is helping me immensely.

Cool bicycle helmet.
@robertmccully2792. lol.
It could have so easily ended up in the FailArmy, but it's definitely a Win. This video is an excellent example of the limitlessness of craftsmanship given the right tools.
(What's your next video, building a pyramid alone? j/k)
@331SVTCobra Thanks! You are right that it could have been a major fail. I was scared during each of the beam raisings and relieved when they were all up. Here was the dilemma I faced. The lower-risk alternatives to the daily rate for renting a material lift were all orders of magnitude more expensive (rough terrain forklift at $260/day + delivery fee vs. $75/day for the material lift). Without prior experience, I had no basis for estimating how long I would need the lift. I worried that maybe the pieces would not fit together correctly on the first attempt, requiring time-consuming adjustments and additional rental costs.
amazing job. This video is very motivating. What did you use for the design? Buy plans or have software to design your self?
Thanks. I bought pdf plans from timberframehq.com and then re-created them in Sketchup with altered dimensions to fit my slab.
Great job, man. You made it look easy. Can I ask how high that was? I have something coming up thats 19' high. Wondering if one of those lifts will work.
Here’s a model that will do 24’. www.genielift.com/en/material-handling/material-lifts/slc-24
Thanks for a great video series! Awesome job! Did you fabricate the little two wheel cart on the other end of the log arch? Or did you purchase? If so can say where you bought it?
Thanks! This is the one I have but there are others you might want to look into as well. I bought mine from Northern Tool. Here’s the Amazon link www.amazon.com/dp/B07RV54ZC6
@@LouisStorms Great! Thank you so much!
Did you buy the blue hand dolly from there as well? That link only had the smaller grey dolly
Can you put a list of equipment in the description plz? That’d be helpful for non-English speaker like me? Thanks
See the description in this video for some of the links.

I rented the lift which was a Genie Superlift.
That's blue dolly is great. What's the name of the product and where did you get it?

@@LouisStorms Thank you!
I like the idea of using a strap instead of the metal clamp that comes with it.
What a pelava just get mates round 😬
Great vid. What’s the name and model # of the hoist youre using? Did you rent it or purchase? Thanks!
At the beginning you don't show how the timbers got off the truck. How did you do that part? Also, what is the dolly apparatus that you have (Blue with tires)? Is that a commercially available product?
The truck had a dump bed. It backed up into my driveway and dumped the packed wood. I was worried about damage at the time but there wasn’t any. The dolly is a log arch. It’s available for purchase here: logrite.com/Category/log-arches
Hi could you tell me what is this hand lifting machine like a hand mechanical forklifter :D? Please tell me more about it...
I rented the one I used. The lift brand is Genie which is owned by a company named Terex. Here's the Genie website.

What is the name of that lift?
I rented the one you see in the video from a local rental shop in Houston since I only needed it for two days. The lift brand is Genie which is owned by a company named Terex. Here's the Genie website.

@@LouisStorms Hi Lousi, what would be an approximate weight of the beam you are lifting?
@@alexanderloladze613 The Doug Fir plates were each about 28’ before cutting. Don’t hold me to this but I believe I calculated that each plate weighed about 650 - 700 lbs. Different wood species and moisture contents will have different weights.
What size timber’s did you use all the way around? And what’s the overall dimensions of the structure?
Slab is 12’ x 24’. Plates and ties 8”x12”. Posts 8”x8”. Rafters 4”x10”. Braces 4”x8”. Roof decking 2”x6” T&G.
Looks great, what did the timbers cost you?
~ $13K total before tax, including the pine T&G roof deck. Note that I used "clear" WRC for the posts, ties, and braces. Had I gone with "knotty" cedar, as I did for the rafters, the total cost would have come down to ~$9.5K.
Way to use your head. Smart
Hate to be that guy. But great work overall. You should never walk under a suspended load. Others watching and planning something like this keep that in mind.
@J will I’m always happy to receive constructive feedback. Your advice sounds wise and I’ll abide by it going forward. Appreciate it.
