How to Raise the First Cabin Wall All Alone ! - EP 22

Time to try my DIY wall jacks to see if they will allow me to raise the first wall all the Cabin all by myself! It sounds a little dangerous but I had no choice if I wanted to make some progress.

I am Tristan, I am building a 400 SF cabin at the back of my house. I plan on doing it all by myself. I plan on sharing this journey here on Youtube where I will show you every step of the way, all the struggles I run into and everything I will learn from this experience. I will then rent the cabin as a short term rental in hope of covering most, if not, all my house mortgage (House Hacking). Follow me here as this will absolutely be one of a kind journey.
