    Hanging a Chain Hoist from Truss? Thoughts?

    Maybe, but I am not looking to just lift it up and set it down once, it needs moved a few times before its sat in its final resting place. Once structure will lift it. One strap through windows and once its lifted a bit one can be added under the cabover part.

    Best grass killer before laying gravel down?

    Not really the right answer for my question, a good option for different applications, but I am looking for a grass killer.

    Best grass killer before laying gravel down?

    I've tried that. Had no affect. Used a pressurized spray container. Only made my wife complain of smell and got on our shoes for a say.

    Thanks, the shed was not a factor, if need be, I would have moved it, might still move it in the future, it was just going to be tight, but it all worked out.
