| 479946 | 2006-08-22 06:02:00 | Have you thought about asking the local power companys ? to see what their boys in the field use? they use wooden ladders which extend and one person can carry. Not sure what length tho sorry. And they always harness themselves to the poles. Just a sugestion. beetle |

| 479947 | 2006-08-22 08:50:00 | That's the problem. A lighter ladder, however nice that is, isn't as strong as a heavy one. exactly, you simply cannot use it to do some things for eg climb up it with it on a 45 degree angle or handle huge amounts of use. you simply have to use the equipment wisely, not like building sites where i see 2 or more people going up a ladder at the same time :eek: | tweak'e (69) | ||
| 479948 | 2006-08-23 02:59:00 | A "fun" :( game is raising a long ladder in a gusty wind. (Not to mention being at the top in a gusty wind. That's when it becomes no longer "one hand for the firm, one for me". I always followed the old Post Office rule. "A ladder must be secured at the top before anyone climbs it". :D I still prefer a rung or ladder step which doesn't bend when I'm carrying something heavy up the ladder. |
