WHEN WE FINALLY GET 1 STEEL IN WE THEN INSTALL THE PADSTONES EACH END .
AS ALWAYS ITS A DIFFICULT ONE WITH ISSUES ALONG THE WAY......ENJOY

Hi great video as always ! what I've found helpful on these types of jobs is clipping a couple of scaffolding tubes to the top section of the acrow through the opening to lift the steel onto one end at a time. Only really works when you have acrows both sides of the wall but give stable support for the steel till you manoeuvre into final position

A genie needs a a flat level surface which if you actually take more we didn’t have . I bet if we didn’t wear the hard hats you would have been the first on to point it out .🙄

@@SteveAndAlexBuild you can’t get much flatter than the Floor you was working off…. More worried about ya feet than you banging your head.. the small genies reach out further than the feet so no problem using it with different floor heights. Would of been much safer and quicker… 👍

@@SteveAndAlexBuild use the arm extenders, the feet touch the wall and the arms extend another 400mm. I’ve got the small one that lifts 190kg had it years. Much safer. Struggled for years like you. There worth there weight in gold.
