I took the cube off my white truck by myself with a floor jack and some treated 2x8 scraps. Just work fast, before the wind grabs it.

There are many Amish communities near me. Maybe that's how I was able to lift the cube over 4 feet with a single jack?
I'm in for the barn raising!

How would you pay the Amish because don't they only trade? I don't believe they take cash? or do they...
