Default Lifting metal to ceiling

If I install metal on my ceiling inside my garage, some of the sheets
may be 16 foot long. Is there something I could build or come up with
to install these myself?


Here in the middle of the country we call the guy next door to help
for a while and then set out some cold ones to celebrate success. On
the left and right coasts people aren't like that so you might just
nail a bailing wire loop across the rafters to hold one end while you
tack up the other end. Panels are light enough that even SWMBO could
lift and hold one end easily. It's really not at all a big deal.
