horribly done videos are coming. Ohh and on a good note..... yesterday ordered 20mil 20x30 tarp to lay on the ground below this. And a bunch of stakes. This will lessen moisture from ground coming up and clinging to everything causing mold on everything from the condensation that forms from...

Well this didn't go to well... cause have to now build it at full height mostly. Issue is cant reach parts of it to build it. Box top of truck is 7 feet wide..... and the span out to the eaves is aournd 15 feet wide. That has made it complicated. that and lifting both new section and part...

More details later... but first 8ft section standing on itsits own. Lots of measuring and refiguring .. HOPEFULLY it is sitting exactly where I need it. > Lifted whole thing 5ish feet up and added legs /purlins > put it down, picked it up... wash rinse repeat many times as was jockeying it...

BTW... while not in a hurry..... but if anyone ends up with broken/bent purlins/ridge beam they dont want. cut out the section with the arm that swings out that "spin locks" to a Leg or Rafter- (Arch Beam) and send them my way. Could use 8 of them. Thinking eventually could add a pair...

W/out cover.... first section.. 8foot constructed MINUS the the bottom 8ft of walls to get total height. With section sitting on the headers.. atop of the truck's box the peak of this section is at 11-ish feet high..... so 5 feet higher to go .... Didnt use the tall jack stands.. Whole build...

Ok... so is two pieces 16x34 ... that span from ground, over top of roof and back to ground.. result being a complete 1/2 of the enclosure- ( two walls, full 1/2 of roof top).. In addition will separately be the two curtained ends... Got it... thanks so then coulddddd if decided just put up...

define a section? Is it, 2 walls and Roof = section?? Walls only = section and roof is seperate?? (if so Im missing stuff) orrr?? Ive got two huge bundles of tent/tarp w/guy rope on them with this purchase. Does that sound like Im missing major stuff?

Hmmm..... then again... could add the two eaves Purlins...... use Cherry Picker like above described to lift it up on jack stands.. the continue assembly as described above. whole section then would end up needing only a one foot lift to put in position on ground. hmmmm?

See this post oh am not ignoring that at all. Schemes exist in my brain bucket.... they are just not vetted much yet. Am I correct there is four roof canvas and eight wall sections?

🤠 😱 :sick: 🤯 Think have a plan after got mind blown. If it makes sense to you... pick it apart for pit falls, Thanks in advance. put cherry picker on roof of Truck box with its end of lift arm as close to fore/aft center of 10'ft boxes top as possible. Actually just forward of that to...

litte Math-en says no. cheery picker wont work on roof op... unless one disassembles it after building a section.. so can drive underneath header /cross beam, ot move truck box forward to center-ish area of the net section to construct.... then reassemble it for build of next section. which...

TM says " Height (at Eaves) 11-ft 8-7/8-in. Height (at Ridge) 15-ft 1-in Width (at Base) 23-ft 11-5/16- " what is height at the headers?? (cross beam (cabes) between rafters)

send me the 1k to do that and I'll be all over it. one crane hack idea/ is a cherry picker on top of a my truck. View it in your mind as box truck with cherry picker on roof. Something am considering. Beating my head brainstorming that right now. think I need two .cherry pickers.. Have only got...

BTW.- just a clarification... will one, two, or ?? of the structure/framing stand by itself with no guy wires? Stable enough to add on section at a time?? (no cloth/tarp yet) or would you HAVE to rope it down good for just the structure/frame too stand on its own?

:unsure::driver:gotta come help to find out :ROFLMAO:

good points... Have to brainstorm more on ceiling. For sides.... wonder if would work better to attatch bottom...and fold it zig zag...atop that. That way as hoist it up along the sides.....not actually lifting full weight of the whole thing. (still a section..... maybe two at a time).

sir..... still worry about taptalk links as a way to get images into post... hope you upload any of them into here that are still on their server. Say that cause 100% of all pic hosting services switched to EXTORSION business model. (demand you pay yearly fee or loose every picture you have...

with frame fully assembled..... is it..... itself strong enough to hang pulley(s) from to hoist a roof tarp section from peak ends of each section.. Similar question .... pulleys @12ft eve on sides to pull up a wall section? while it holds the tarps when assembled... that weight is spread...

Whats your thought on a 2x4 version of the far end cross bars instead of cables (or on addition too). Seems that might make my build plan work better.

Similar to this method is what am planning for whole construction .... but instead not from a Tractor bucket.. build each section from roof of a LMTV's Hard Cargo Box and install/hang legs like you did off each side. ... then jack that section up / tuck legs into place..till its free...
