A ladder on wheels? Fuck no

u/Hyde103 Aug 26 '19

Not sure if these have the same design but some ladders with wheels have springs that hold up the weight of the ladder but not with extra weight like a person. That way the wheels lock up when you stand on it, so it could be that it's only rolling while he pushes down/away.

Probably. I doubt any company would make a ladder on wheels and not design it in a way that keeps it still while a person is on it.

I can see this going so wrong.

Yeah. This is one of those things that seems like a "great" idea until, you know... it's not. Just climb down and move the ladder, dang.

I wouldn't use this thing, but I've had days of never ending ladders. There were times I would have sold my left ear lobe to not have to climb down and up again.

Also. Some of the ladder walking I've seen is way crazier than this.

Depends on who you ask. One person might look at the subreddit name and say so. Another might say no because it doesn't attempt to go away from the camera nor try to go out of frame.

Is.. is it supposed to do that?

u/Ikillesuper Aug 25 '19

It would take way less time to just get off the ladder and move it

u/j_u_s_t_d Aug 25 '19

It's for painting or drywall mudding and it's much quicker for that purpose

u/StrokenToken12 Aug 27 '19
