  • And a new problem - I am incapable of lifting the wall up by myself.

    There's ~150kg of steel, and similar of wood.

    Time to invite family to stay...

  • prop the bottom and then use ratchets to the top to try and slowly pull it up?

    edit: or even a little hand winch

    This is lacking, unfortunately.

    I could build a cantilever - It's not as if I don't have the wood. I have been subtly vetoed, however - I'm already solo-building on license, as I had said that I would hire someone in to help, but just went ahead and started by myself.

    I have my brother heading over on the bank holiday. If that doesn't work, I quite like the winch idea, and I could always get a long rope back to the house.
