Great looking paint job Nick! I love the colors.

Edit: That plank setup over the door looks a little scary.

I'm wth Humble. I hate walkboards! Maybe with a web netting or something. Or something like the commercial that shows the guy falling and his whole body is enveloped in a balloon-like suit. Hell, I'd still bounce into somehing and get hurt or killed ! Not much for heights!

Humble Abode

wth are you doing painting? Just kidding. Do you only do interiors?

I know no one wants to hear this but OSHA requires, for good reason, 12" or 16" on either side of the ladder jack.

Interior here. Might do single story now and then. Guy had me on a walkboard once that was metal frame with plywood covering. This hing had tapered ends. He had the tapered part partly on the ladder jacks o the ladders. Ths board was always left outside and the wood was in bd shape with holes in it! my dumb scared a** was up about 25 feet washing a house with the ladders on a brick patio. That was my first time on a board. I could just see the ladders spreading apart from the tapered ends of the board, slipping on the wet brick,or me stepping through the wood skin of the board. Only tme I have been on a board since is when i sprayed my house maybe 10'/12' off the ground on boards made. I did try to use one of my boards on top of a couple of gal buckets to some interior cutting in. From now on, I will just move my ladder for that.

Did you take down the 3'd ladder with the other plank before the pic?

rws

I was going to ask the same thing

boman47k

Thats another thing! The third ladder! I was had to climb over the board! I asked someone a few days ago about this. They also talked like they climb over. Bs! At least provide a third ladder! No more climbing onto or off a walkboard (feeling for the ladder rung) for this old boy on a wobbly contraption like that.

We had a pipe staging tower along side the plank setup. Took it down before pic.

Myself and two of my crew statred in the industry together painting bridges and electrical towers, have plenty of experince with pics and all types of staging.

The job went well no accidents and very profitable.

Thanks for asking though, the member of my crew who setup the staging is 61 yrs young.

Here is another before and after, done with pump staging and lifts.

Myself and my full timer do the climb over all the time, its a little scary sometimes, but did use the 3'd ladder a few times last year. I love when we have the 24' plank on the ladder jacks, its like a trampoline in the
middle.

4th ladder please! One for the middle, one for access to the board. LOL! Okay, I'm a little wimpy when it comes to being on boards. Don't caref or steep pitched roofs either. Heheh, what you get used to, I guess. I need to get into it.......I guess. I think I might want to withdraw that statement before it gets cold.
I was hoping when I made mine, I could push them up on the edge, get over them on the ladder, then kick them back down on the ladder jacks to get on the boards themselves. Didn't work out that way of course.

SeanATL

wow, both of those look really good.

Nice job! Ladder jacks and scaffold planks- ONLY way to be productive on a job like that.
