You might want to check out the combination style. They are part step and part extension. You can open it up and raise the extension part so you can use the ladder in a stairway. You can raise the extension and have a long ladder. Then there are things I don't even know you can use it for.
Check out the ads for the Giant Genie I think it is. You can turn it into scaffolding, platforms and all kinds of cool things. And they are welded instead of riveted. Get great ratings. ----- Original Message ----- From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Sent: Monday, February 09, 2009 3:52 PM Subject: [BlindHandyMan] Ladder question Bill Stephan Kansas Citty MO Email: [email protected] Phone: (816)803-2469All: Now that I have the fancy radio, I feel the need to devise bigger and better antennas to see what works best. This is more difficult than it should be because of where the house is located on our property and how it faces. In any case, I need to buy a ladder for this and other tasks. I'm not all that comfortable with a basic extension ladder simply because I obviously can't see what I'm about to lean it against. I'm familiar with the basic step ladder concept, but I believe there are some other options out there that might make more sense. I want something that's going to be stable, and that I can use on surfaces other than say a flat floor. Do any of you have suggestions or experience with what types of ladders are available and what their merrits might be? Thanks in advance for any help with this.
