FWIW I prefer wood ladders although a lot of contractors now prohibit
anything but fiberglas on job sites. Apparently they are concerned
about wood ladders cracking and causing incidents for which they may
be held liable. I think this may also be a current OSHA requirement.


I wonder how long until we start seeing carbon fiber ladders...
