  • Here we have some sketchy rigging for raising timbers, and I mean some sketchy rigging. This is the first time throughout this build that I have been truly nervous about putting something in the air. It's right on the edge of the second floor, the joinery did not fit as well as most of the timber frame joinery in this building but I am willing to deal with it at this point as there is nothing that will affect the strength of the structure. Hope you enjoy the show.

    You know you're not alone in doing the best a man can with what he has. Good job.

    Semi controlled chaos!!!! Anchors, pulleys, winches, inclines, simple, Oh yeah! Great work and you are safe, CHEERS!

    Morning Jim.... pure ingenuity! There's always a way to do something if you put your mind to it. Warm weather coming, enjoy.

    Jim, There isn't much that can't be done with the five simple machines. lever, pulley , wheel (block and tackle) , inclined plane , wedge , and the screw. I'm building a Timber Frame on my property near Flagstaff Az. Limited manpower and sometimes alone. I love it when people say "It can't be done without a crane" Stay safe, use your head not your back. "Give me a long enough lever and a fulcrum and I can move the world" Archimedes

    You are a whiz at figuring out how best to solve any situation. The weather radar sure showed your area as being wet over the weekend. All the best my friend

    That wasn't too too bad. As long as the danger is acknowledged and treated appropriately. Getting closer. Looks good.

    Another great video Jim, it's amazing how you work these problems out all on your own, well done , loving the music too.

    Good job, well done,looks likes like we’re having some kind of fun. You sir are a man who won’t say that’s not possible, great idea on the rigging. It’s no wonder you don’t get much sleep editing videos and coming up with way to over come an obstacle.

    I love sketchy and questionable methods, they get the job done, nice work

    I'm reminded of the old saying "I'd rather be lucky than good" Looks like you got a heaping helping of both on that one. I've spent a lot of time doing a two man (of more) job by myself but that one sure could have used a second hand or two.

    You handled it really well. Great job bud!! Y'all will need a good vacation.

    Hi Jim. Some good farm engineering there. I love it. Really creative solution. I am really waiting for the army of drones to put in your rafters. Easy sneezy. Get some rest. Looking forward to your next video.
