    Jack, Roger, like both of you I wanted to lift my body off but was alone. I came up with a rig something like Jacks! I checked on the lifting capabilities of lags and set 4 into the ceiling joists of my house at the time. Then, built a substructure into the body with 2 X 4's. Using some pulleys and 3/8" line, I could use my come along to shorten the line and effectively raise the body slowly and smoothly all by myself. Here should be a couple pics, if I do this right! LOL..
