Man, that boom truck would have been handy setting my trusses. I went to the Rent-all and got a 'duct lift' that would lift 20sum feet....caught a truss under the mid point, hand cranked the lift up, twisted a little to clear the outside walls, twisted again and set it down on the wall real lightly. Climbed a ladder on one side, nailed the truss, then the other side, then climbed up in the middle of the previous set trusses to scab a board on the new one...back to the ground and crank the lift down. Would have been a good time to have had a few extra hands ! Thank goodness it was 25 years ago when I could move a lot better than today.....ahahhaaa.
I rent these all the time!!! Great for getting stuff up into the air when working by yourself.
