3033R
I absolutely hate ladders. This is my latest none ladder.

Front and sides come off with only removing pins.

Back side is welded.

Stays on pallet forks with 2 1/2" draw pins that run thru 3" channel and 3/8" angle. That allows scaffolding to float on forks and still be stable.

240#s 3033R handles it very nicely with 2 men and equipment.

Looks good, but do you need to have someone else operating the tractor to raise and lower it when you're in it?

Nah, Mate. A very looooong handled hoe will reach the joystick. She'll be right... :thumbsup:

(G'day wardlake and welcome to TBN from Downunder. Nice lookin' cage.

Enjoy the site.)

Nice job but I do find the picture ironic. You hate ladders so much yet you have three hanging on the wall.

But now he will not be using the ladders any more.:laughing:

Welcome to the forum and very nice build on the cage.

I’ve done that!!! Works real well until you drop the handle or it rolls off the platform

Here's my work platform, it's 4' wide and 10' long (I wish it was about 2' longer)
I can boom up 34' :)

Here’s mine. I sold our Genie articulated man lift a couple years ago and had to drag my homemade platform out of retirement.
