Customer Reviews

Qual - Craft Wall jacks make life easy!!!
I bought a set of two of these to aid in the construction of my new house. I was able to raise 30 to 40 foot long walls of 2x6 construction with all headers installed, and sheathed on the exterior with 1/2 inch OSB!! No pain, no strain, and just myself and my wife. One consideration is to use long enough "handles" to avoid the potential fall zone. Couldn't have built solo without them. Great product!

I'm a lumber jack, and I'm OK...
Working solo I used one 2601Q to raise a 26ft long by 9 foot tall 2X6 wall with little problem. Jack tends to bind if the 2x4 is not smooth, and then the rachet requires persuasion using hammer taps.

qual craft wall jack
The wall jack design is o.k. but I don't think it has the weight capacity it says it does. I tried to jack up a wall and the jack just stripped the wood 2x4. I used a clear doug-fir like it recomended.
