Thanks for the compliment, I do my best to make quality videos. Thank you for taking the time to comment, it's a pleasure to hear from the people who watch the videos.
Another very clear methodical explanation, thanks. Wish I had this video before I self-taught myself these things a couple of years ago! I found it was also useful to grease/oil where the screw meets the plate (I was putting some serious force on the screws to raise & level something). Your use of tape is a v. good idea. I wore a hard hat just in case some part of the assembly went awry.
That video was so well done. You told me what I needed to know not everything that I didn't need to know. Thank you Thank You Thank You. From a very appreciative and not very handy person.

I talk about that at 1:45. I'm using the recommendations from the manufacturer of the post. Screw on top for a metal beam, on the bottom for the situation in the video. It's been a while since I made the video (I often spend a lot of time checking facts and do my best not to give bad advice.), I kind of remember checking with another manufacturer & found the same instructions. There must be a reason, I'm sure a structural engineer could explain top vs bottom.
this is the best Jack Post video I have found, great techniques.

Thanks for commenting, David. Good idea to put some grease on the plate.
This is exactly the information I was looking for. Thanks for taking the time to make this video!

You are welcome, Chuka!
Very nice. Only thing that had me laughing was “2/16ths”
It's my pleasure to provide some comedy and a mental challenge....you have to figure out how to reduce a fraction. lol.
Extremely well done! Thank-you!

Welcome
Is this post not upside down? I have always seen the adjustment screw at the top.
I talk about that at 1:45. I'm using the recommendations from the manufacturer of the post. Screw on top for a metal beam, on the bottom for the situation in the video. It's been a while since I made the video (I often spend a lot of time checking facts and do my best not to give bad advice.), I kind of remember checking with another manufacturer & found the same instructions.

Thanks for the info. Yea that't a strange one.
good luck trying to stand on a ladder to adjust your jack post screws at a 12' height or higher.
I don't think they make 12' jack posts. The one in the video is almost maxed out. If I remember correctly, the new posts I installed were 90 inches.
Don't see why it would matter. Like previous statement hard to adjust or possibly get out of the way on a step ladder.
