I’m soft, weak, and have few friends. I need to rent a set of wall jacks to stand up two 48′ gable walls, but no place I’ve called here in the Atlanta area seems to even know what I’m talking about. Any suggestions?

the best and most expensive, and safest wall jack system out there is by qual-craft ,the ultra jack system.all aluminum with a rubber runner where the pump jack runs up and down they have extensions that can go up to i think 60' . with a 24' foot scaffold plank16" preferable for my fat a**. at 48' i wouldnt trust the standard 2x4 with a pair of home depot special's. safety is real important, the big DUH of the day.so find some new friends. go to ladder and scaffolding place mine is called atlas around here. and see if they can help you out, if not ride around or get a referral to a tradesman who has a pair. see if you can workout a price. i dont know if your in the "business" or not but the safer you feel the quicker, more efficient you'll be.. so you'll be able to enjoy that kool adult type beverage, instead of needing one. : ) cheers
What was that about "the big DUH of the day"?
safety........ that comes first, new friends can help you set them up............

I will sell to anyone anywhere a brand new, never used pair of Proctors for $500, and you pay shipping. They are the best out there, ask around. E-mail me if you want them.
