That was more like 3 cents worth.


Jacks:

Any any any kind of jack will work. It can even be a 6" bottle jack
from the car or truck.

make a T out of some 10 footers, or whatever you need.

sturdy up the jack, set a block on, set the long ass T on the block.

crank away! you can lift much with a T like that...

I replace 8 columns on a super old home, my T's were about 16 foot long
ea.
with two jacks, I worked my way down the powch!
