BTDT, exactly how we hoisted 30' wide trusses to a second floor
location. Two people, one pushing, one on the header plate, C-clamps
as safety stops on the 45 degree ramps, and a decent length of rope
and ten of the trusses were stacked in place in a couple of hours. In
a nearby development there were three guys working with a boom truck
all morning. They had more $$ to spend, I guess.
