    I had the rope pullr to pull it away from the home and a few support poles and a chopper incase the remaining support roots failed. I could have set up a bunch of blocks and cradle rigged it but this was so much easier. What would be even better is a 6'jack with bit shorter pipe. Two working in...

It is tough stressful work pounding plancks, logs and beams but it possible to wedge a huge load up and over. Next call I get...
