Detailing Ladder

Here is something I found. It is 51" high.
Pentagon Professional Drywall Workbench: Tools : Walmart.com

It looks to be about the same working height as the 21" Werner, but with a handy tray at 51" for tools and MFs.

The pictures I posted were units that were $100 and $200. If I had the room I would get one, very handy!

I picked up a great one from Lowe's about a year ago

So has anyone got a platform that's around 30"? Surely they can't all be just 20-21"

Here's a mini-review of the one I bought at Costco: http://www.autogeekonline.net/forum/...-platform.html

It's fine for working on my Honda Element which is relatively tall for a small SUV (and my relatively short 5'7" height). But if I had a larger vehicle I would opt for a rolling ladder or scaffold.

The Griots Garage one I linked to earlier in this thread, has a low height of 21" and extends to 31 & 3/4" high.

Costco has that as well: http://www.costco.com/DURABENCH-Two-....11653835.html

That's pretty cool. It doesn't mention that it is rated to be a work platform (scaffold) at the extended height, but I don't see why not. But still quite expensive to get an extra ten inches.

It is true and the manual does indicate such, but I find for my weight (155lbs.) at the extended height it supports my weight in a stabll, reassuring manner and have done so. If I were closer in weight to the 500 pounds it is rated for, I would only use it at the lowest extension. It is salty in deed, but in my case money well spent considering the extra height should I need it, the ability to plug my DA in at the platform and to have an extra workbench when needed.
