Took out 28' of supporting wall in my house and put this 28', 200 yr old, 700+ lb beam in its place to hold up the 2nd story.

My trailer is 18' long and I had to extend the beam out the back and into the bed of the truck, then haul it right at 50 mi back to the house...

In case you are wondering...me and one other guy installed the beam...

Love the rustic look of the beam. Great job.

Note the wooden pegs in the beam, there were no metal bolts, all wood. Beams with wooden pegs are over 150 years old.

Where the beam is, is where the old wall was, the other side was a back porch and later inclosed when they added the 2nd floor.

The 3 support vertical posts came from under an old hunting cabin they are made from Cedar and the main beam is hickory.

We are doing a whole house remodel, almost finished.
