Arjay:
A I am going to paint my living room that has a 17 foot high ceiling. I A must be able to reach the top because I need to fix popped nails, so A stretching is not really an option. A A Would I be better off to buy a very tall ladder or rent scaffolding? A I have to work alone, so I need what is easiest to use and is the A safest. Rent scaffolding. A ladder at that height (even half that height) is unsafe because one is pretty much bound to stretch a little, cause the ladder to become imbalanced and slide to that side. Once the ladder starts to tilt there is no stopping it -- well, except for the floor. - ¯ barry.martinþATþthesafebbs.zeppole.com ® * ClientSez: OK, I have a C: backsplash. --- þ RoseReader 2.52á P003186 þ The Safe BBS þ Bettendorf, IA 563-359-1971 --- þ RIMEGate(tm)/RGXMod V1.13 at BBSWORLD * |
