Painting High Stairwell - Homemade Platform 

This is so sketchy looking! I’ve been working as a contractor for years but this is the sketchiest setup I’ve seen for a stairwell yet. you would have been a million times safer if you wouldn’t have involved the ropes and harness. The platform is fine if you only have a straight ladder but your best bet is to get an adjustable step ladder like a Little Giant. For a small project like this you could even return it when your done to get your money back, but I’d recommend keeping it as it’s more useful to the average homeowner than an extension ladder. Stay safe

great job Chaz .. I see they are selling this tool now .!

Like the idea

I built that platform a year ago and worked like a charm. Since there was a long way down the stairs to the next wall I took a long rope and tied it to a door hinge up top after I put a three inch screw into the center home into the framing. At that point the ladder could not slide towards the low side. Very happy to find this video!

Wow, creative but sketchy. Much safer to not be tied off to the top of the ladder, tho. Love the videos,

Hi! As a lady who cleans her own guttering and other things, thanks for your help.

I need to make that platform and make it wider and more adjustable 😊 not all steps are the same height, thanks for sharing the video.

Thank you for that that is what i was thinking the other day when a friend called me to help her out and paint a vaulted ceiling going up the stairs so the first thing i did is looked it up on youtube and God bless you you came up and save me and it worked great and made me like like a hero thank you i give you the credit

People who don’t want to use any safety hate this guy

Hooking yourself on a ladder is more dangerous, if you fall you will pull the ladder on top of you.

Man you just got to get good at cutting in with a brush on a pole, and just be patient for that little 10-foot section

omg thats a bit extreme wi the helmet on yer heed you must no be good on ladder for you to be tied everywhere

Absolutely insane…….. pls do not replicate too dangerous

U da bomb!

Watch out, you don’t have stability if the angle of the ladder is decreased.

Pretty dumb and unsafe
