Back in July I took an unexpected trip to the ER after a ladder I was standing on shifted. It was turn loose and fall or fall on edge of concrete wall, I choose falling straight down, resulted in a couple of cracked ribs, could certainly been worse. That ladder went straight to scrap.
Sorry to hear you lost a friend Oldiron, life can be a bummer at times. I'll take some more pics for you, rigidity and stability were primary concerns building this project.
