How to Make Some Basic Scaffolding

[@Chocaluvr]

That was simple to make. I love how your doggie is helping out by bringing you more blocks. 🥰

[@TheWoodlandReboot]

Thanks.

[@johnogozalek6240]

I built the scaffold using your plan and it was a big help on my back roof and the front porch. I took a picture but I don't see a way to upload it on here. Thanks for the help!

[@joseluislara7194]

Nice! Was looking for diy scaffolding ideas. This one is one of the best so far. Probably going to try out this idea.

[@craigcarmichael5748]

I think I'd feel a lot better if there was a handrail or something to grab if I lost my balance way up on top there. Still, some good ideas, Thanks! I like the plank with the 2x4 attached - was wondering how to get something strong enough! PS: I think I like the A frame. But I'll extend the front riser so it can support a handrail behind. a "ʎ" frame.

Thanks Craig. Yes, it is a bit dodgy when standing on top. It would be easier to make it safer. Good luck with your project. Peter at the Reboot.

[@groundskeeper5292]

Not bad. Think I'll make something similar. Basically just a tall sawhorse. Thanks for the idea.

[@TheWoodlandReboot]

Exactly. Nothing special at all. No extra cost and it gets the job done.

13:50 Your dog arrives with an additional manual adjustment block!

[@TheWoodlandReboot]

I never noticed that before. Thanks!

I have a pair of 6’ high horses with rails at 2’ and 4’. perpendicular to a wall they can support a real aluminum staging plank.

I love the dog~~~~~

[@TheWoodlandReboot]

Thanks. Blue is a great little Lab! Peter at the Reboot.

[@lyndonp6296]

I'm sorry but you will have to rename your dog.... Only Australians can name their dog 'Blue'...in fact, I think they all do...@@TheWoodlandReboot

I jumped out of an airplane and I loved it... but goddam I can't stand working atop ladders!

[@TheWoodlandReboot]

Ladders - I can't stand them! Peter at the Reboot.

[@gergemall]

Thank you ❤

[@davidav8orpflanz561]

I need to re-shingle my shed's roof, I need scafoldding to do it, and I've got a metal bunk bed not being used (currently partially disassembled)....I think I see a re-purposing, and I might need similar levelling blocks from Amazon...got a link for that?

[@TheWoodlandReboot]

That is a great idea ... repurposing the bunk bed.

[@oldguy5458]

Nice job,,I too need scaffolding,,,Do you have an item number for the leveler from Amazon? Thanks in advance for any help.Best Regards

[@TheWoodlandReboot]

Thanks for the comment. I didn't use any new tools for this project. The level I used is one I bought 10+ years ago. To adjust the level given the landscaping taper, I found level and measured down the ground with the tape measure ... about 4 inches. You can see me doing this at the 8:31 mark in the video. If I did not answer your question, let me know. Peter at the Reboot.

[@justincooper1626]

I like your design but i need to go up about 24 feet.

[@ImAChristianFirst]

2x6x8 triangles

[@TheWoodlandReboot]

24 feet! Warning: do not use my design for such height! Good luck with it and I'd love to know which way you go: rent or build your own. Peter at the Reboot.

Why would you not just use the yellow metal scaffolding in your workshop? Those are the ones I use all the time I got mine from Harbor Freight and I have had them for over 20 years now and I now own 4 of them so I can go pretty high.

[@TheWoodlandReboot]

Good question Jo. I thought about using the yellow scaffolding; however, the outside work is on very uneven ground, especially around the side of the building where the crushed stone tapers away from the building. The yellow scaffolding would fall over. The scaffolding I built on the trailer takes the taper into account. It worked very well. Thanks for watching. Peter at the Reboot.

[@RedSquirreLx]

Two ladders and aboard is easier no?

[@TheWoodlandReboot]

The gravel tapers away from the side of my building, dropping about a foot over two feet. The scaffolding I made takes this decline into account

[@davidav8orpflanz561]

But, is it OSHA approved? Assuming, "OSHA" is the dog's name!

[@TheWoodlandReboot]

She thinks it's great.
