For
this project, I fabricated a 24 foot boom that was mounted on the back
of the motorhome. It is powered by a 12 volt 10,000 pound
winch. This picture shows the testing of the boom after it was
first constructed. It is lifting a trailer that I am building
(no, I didn't list it on the projects page). |

In
addition to lifting the beams, I used the boom to raise the lumber for
the roof. In this photo you can see the fixture I made to hold
the lumber . |

In
this photo you can see the OSB sheet being raised to the roof. In
the background you can also see the 2X8 purlins for the roof. I
finished the roof on January 1, 2000. I guess I should say that I
finished the roof for the winter. (just beat the snow that occurred
that day). The OSB (75 sheets worth!!) is attached and the 30#
felt is stapled on. I will install the asphalt shingles when the
weather clears up this spring. |
