Glenn had to use a hammer and a drift pin to get his side in the right spot

Getting the rigging all set up for the first big lift.

This one crane lifted over 14,000 in a single lift. There were two lifts this afternoon.

Looking up to the top

1/2 way there

 

 

All went very well!

Paul, Ray, and Ryan work hard at moving the heavy steel into place

If you look close you can see a slight gap between the wall and the roof section

Glenn is guiding his side into place

Getting the bolt ready once the holes are lined up

Looking good! One side done, one to go

Dave is pulling on the tag line trying to put the second roof section into its correct spot. Meanwhile, Sam & Stan from the Food Bank were wondering who would be stronger - Dave or the crane! (For those of you who have not yet met Dave, he is 6'7" and 285lbs)
