Post Subject: The final few inchesPosted by jessie.dazzle on: 9/13/2010

It is possible to do the job with only two humans, but in this case one of them might to be doing a lot of climbing up and down out of the attic.

For the final few inches, you might need to extend the forks of the lift; you can do this by using a pair of five-foot lengths of rectangular section steel tubing of a "diameter" that will slide over the forks.

Another option:

In place of the "harness", use a pair of lifts, facing each other, positioned near the wall (so you would need a total of three lifts).

Link the forks of the opposing lifts with a pair of round-section tubes of a diameter that will slid over the forks; these tubes will serve as rollers. This might require placing blocks between the lifts and the wall to keep them from tilting into the wall.

Its also a good idea to have a couple long and stiff poles to use as levers.
