Hi Joanne, You go girl! I love it. Have a great day! ... Usefulgizmos

Hi Joanne, I’m a 66 year old woman and I want to build something like this for me too. I am a widow and like you have no one to help me. Best wishes.

Going on 53, recent widow, bought an old farm house, no one to help me either. I didn't want to rent and haul scaffold. Plus wanting 2nd floor deck anyway, but need scaffold for many reasons like ripping off vinyl plastic siding (can't believe it exists, yuck). I really want to rip roof off and do some tin or clear/skylight/green house roof. I don't know if anyone has done a roof like that. But I am a dreamer. House is 2k sq feet, but low ceilings (they say to heat easier) but wow. Thinking of gutting inside and turning it into half green house half home all in one. Harsh winters, but want natural grown foods all year round. Or I can fix up, sell it, and move to Mexico or somewhere and retire early and grow all year round...lol

@@rcor0net304 hi Mrs Coronet. I know what your going through. I'm now a 62 year young man, trying to get his roof fixed with very little help from family. This scaffolding will cost me the same price as renting. Since I love building my own tools and useful toys, I'll have it done by next weekend. My wife will probably call it a waste of time and money 😑. But I'll use it when I build my barn😁

Appreciate the nice feedback and comments Fred. Thanks for watching and have a great day! .... Usefulgizmos

Sorry, but no advice. Usefulgizmos

The boards are 12 feet long1x4s. But that's just because I purchased a bunch of 12 foot 1x4s for my scaffold project. The boards can be any length though I would have length to have a 45 degree angle or less. Thanks for watching and have a great day! .... Usefulgizmos

Thank you! You are a genius and very nice person! Keep inventing things and posting videos. I enjoy your creativity.

Ladder levelers from Amazon or a paint store.

They are ladder levelers. Have a great day! .... Usefulgizmos

Hi Crina. Thanks for your kind comments. I used 5/16 x 4 inch and 5/16 x 3 inch bolts. Length depends on what's being bolted. Have a great day! .... Usefulgizmos

@@usefulgizmos thank you

@@usefulgizmos The bolt diameters I gave is incorrect. (I had measured the threaded end of a bolt) The correct diameter is 3/8" bolts. I put a plans package together. If interested, send an email to me at usefulgizmos@gmail.com.

Hi Ronald. Please see my response to Joanne Smith, for answers to your question.

Joanne Smith made two posts by the way, so look for the one about my leg leveling system. ... Usefulgizmos

Yes, I built the scaffold that is shown in my youtube video. I had some of the materials so my cost was was reduced. You can look at the video and figure 12 feet for the long lengths of 1x4's and 8 feet for the rest. Then get the costs from you local big box store. I do have a list of materials included in my plans package with blank spaces for the prices that the users can fill in from their local store. The 4 ladder levelers are the high cost items and can be found on Amazon. .... I didn't mind the cost since I figured I could sell the scaffold when I was done using it, and recover most, if not all of my costs. ... Thanks for watching and have a great day! .... Usefulgizmos

I've received requests for plans so I'm considering putting a set together.
