And lots of food on the barbeque to pay the 7 friends you got to come help..... make sure watches and rings came off so nobody nicks up the pumpkin.

A lifting tripod works better. If you have enough muscle you can lift one by your self. Better to have a couple of friends to set it up and guide you as you back the truck or trailer under it.

How long of 4x4's do most people use for legs on a lifting tripod?
