- I'm no expert at lifting beams with a Homemade Gin Pole. I've done it a few times, but nothing like this. Needless to say, things get real sketchy, real quick. All in a day's work at the Off-Grid Cabin Build.

Knowing when to say 'I am done for the day' and not get hurt is bang on. I always find when I get to about 3pm things are getting sketchy and tidy up for the next day. Keep at it - great project.
I’m building a house myself and can relate totally to you, thanks for putting this video out there, you have a fan.
I laughed so hard when the gin pole fell! twice! it lets me know that I'm not the only one who makes mistakes. it gives me encouragement that I can get my project done by myself as well. I'm putting up a Pole Building by myself and the ideas I got from you are priceless. Thanks for sharing!
I’m here for you! Can’t wait to see your pole barn!
A great vid, and I really appreciate you showing the failures. This is a perfect illustration of why everyone doing this type of work should own a copy of the Ashley Book of Knots and spend some time familiarizing themselves with ropes and pulleys. While the use of a mast isn't bad, the devil's in the details and making sure everything is secured and operating like you want... well, that saves a ton of problems. We've lost a lot of knowledge over the generations, but the use of ropes and pulleys is still common enough that we can watch videos from the tradesmen who still use the on a daily basis and apply their techniques to our circumstances.
Love this guy, great attitude
Thank you very much for sharing all the info! The gin pole concept helped me solve the lifting the heavy beam problem while building a treehouse. I love how the old school traditional ways still hold true today! Thanks again for sharing this knowledge!!
Not bad at all for a one man operation. 😎👍
Great attitude bro
For his next act, he’s going to build a pyramid.
I'll be happy to get the roof on this thing!
I might subscribe just so I can see when the ambulance arrives 😂
I hate to disappoint you, that never happens…. Maybe in the sequel.😂
Problems typically pop up after the second beer.
No truer words have ever been spoken.
Hey great video, what are those plates you used called to connect post to beam? Thanks!
Connext Post & Beam. Here’s there site… they’re phenomenal people. Father and daughter company. ctpostandbeam.com/
I hope your insurance guy is not watching this.
Screw that dude😂
What is the crank thingy, and where do I get one?
It’s called a Marine crank… harbor freight has them… they’re about $20
Sorry, I thought you watched a different video… that’s a 2000lb engine chain hoist. Also Harbor freight.
@@OffGridFromTheGroundUp... The only problem that I can see is that the crank handle would get in the way of the mounting, which would need modifications to mounting to overcome in less than ideal situations.... Need to make a video on that.
One guy used Welding to get a drill attachment. But most people don't weld.
@@dennisgarber you’re right. I took the crank handle off and used a 1/2” drill to crank it. I have a video on it!
@@dennisgarber this might help you.

Fasten that gin pole down, or you're going to get hurt.
Now you tell me! 😂
Dude, you need to make some friends:-)
I have friends! They’re just worthless.😂
