I have been doing a lot of work on my old post and beam barn recently. This is how I lifted one corner. I had jack stands under the forks before going to work on it.
.
This is eight feet to the left.
. This is where I lifted a plank to get access to the top of a beam in order to spray boric acid solution on the top of it.
This is a shot of where I took up floor boards and a broken beam. and sprayed acid all around the edges.
This is underneath jacking a beam in order to lift a post that bears on the beam way to the right. In the middle of the night I got the idea of fabricating the little I-beam from two pieces of channel stock. I have raised it 5/8 inch so far. It looks like another half inch will bring the exterior up enough.
I was working on the main floor yesterday when I heard a wood pecker nearby. It sounded like it was at my shop. Well, he was under the soffit of the gable end of my old post and beam barn really going to town, and I thought "Oh cra*p I have bugs up there". Well he continued a little then stop and poked around then skipped up a few inches, stopped, then a few more and stopped, then after checking along fifteen feet he flew away. I am hopeful that his search was fruitless.

She smoked terribly and never had much power but he couldn't afford another so he was limping along with what he had. Jon's Allis has a small front loader and though it doesn't carry much, it serves his needs. It was the hard starting and low power that made him think it was time to replace the old girl. Jon called me to help him discover why his tractor wouldn't start
