    This goal of the project has been completed...

    Window installed and tar paper put up just like roofing shingles to keep the weather off the OSB. Eventually, I'll get around to removing all the stucco and replacing with concrete fiber clapboards. So, for all intents and purposes, the structural work is complete.

    Mini screw jacks of the same design. However, rather than utilizing 3" schedule 40 steel pipe and 1-1/4" threaded rod, the dimensions are 3/4" threaded rod and 3/4" black iron pipe.

    I have a wall section which has been settling and in need of motivating back into place.

    The jacks will be utilized in an exterior location so painting was necessary.

    Mini screw jacks deployed.

    Indications of interior settling/sagging have already improved.
