How To Set Up Scaffolding Solo

[@dianevessels2632]

So helpful. I’m thinking about using scaffolding to use when I strip and paint my exterior siding but have never seen anyone set one up. Thank you for your excellent video.

[@TheJoetuffguy]

Awesome birds in the background

[@e.b.6766]

Thanks for the demonstration. That helps me with the foundation. Gonna look for some videos on stacking sections for more height now.

[@cindysearcy9683]

Thank you so much. I'll be 61 next week and I put it together myself just like you did. Except I have an older version. I still have to put the plywood up on top I think it's supposed to be three-quarter inch? Anyway it's only going to be 92 today and I have some paint to scrape off the house so I better get to it. Thanks for your help. First time's a charm! Thanks again.

[@paulby1010]

The ladder part goes closet to the work. So u can move your walk boards up and down and get exact heights

[@pj3209]

I am in the process of putting up six sections today. Hang a section on the outside on extended walk boards, then lift it up to the next extended walk board. Just move slowly.

[@bunberrier]

Thanks, Im buying some to work on my home and the visual tour helped.

[@erikbogart676]

what kind did you end up buying? these are safeway style, im partial to waco (red) style.

[@petemiller519]

Good video. Never gripe about sunny and warm weather ;) We're working in 18" of snow and -25 C (-13F) up here in Canada. Can't wait for the temps to go back up to the 80's and 90's. Everything is iced up...but hey who's complaining. We're on the right side of the ground and fighting the good fight! Cheers.

[@HandyGuy2016]

Agreed! Stay safe, healthy and have a great year.

[@markpinther9296]

Nice work. Thought you were building upwards with those. Those doves cooing are enough to drive ya nuts! :)

[@craigwyss6035]

Love the ford truck!

[@ej2333]

thanks! your video helped a lot.

[@tifanitcarnes8600]

Thanks for the video ! Could you show the best way to carry or hoist get supplies? Thanks

[@joshuaaustin698]

You should use mud plates under your jack's.

[@HandyGuy2016]

Good tip, thank you for the feedback.

[@CenterTree777]

Nice video, but I was interested in the process of how ONE GUY would set up multiply tiers high. Never set up scaffolding B4 and was wondering if it is hard to lift all those pieces alone, once it gets 3 or 4 sections up.

[@HandyGuy2016]

Sorry, I have not done more than 2 sets high.

[@petemiller519]

Never exceed 3 to 1 height to width ratio. Usually for 5' x 5' frames, that means a height of 15' or 3 frames. If you go 4 frames or higher, the scaffolding must be braced by being attached to the structure or building.

[@gm08351]

I think I speak for most people, we came here to see 3 or 4 courses high

[@alanmaldonado6235]

will 3 sections linked together instead of building 2 different section?

[@brettw.3128]

Yes.

[@ultimateaudio8239]

But then he can't place separate walking planks.

[@craigwyss6035]

If you build 4 stages do u have to anchor 3rd or 4th stage to wall?

[@HandyGuy2016]

I'm not sure what the manufacturer recommends, but possibly.

[@sidthekidisapussy]

When you build up, you need to anchor into the wall every other level

[@soilman55]

Awesome Job, Thanks much

[@Aaronistheman.]

Get a grip

[@francocheuque6767]

thanks, Your video helped me too

[@udomsimon1]

Super awesome thank you

[@jeanniealbert]

I'm looking on how to move the metaltech floor from one set to the other. im by myself and it's hard

[@MCGaar]

Thank you sir

[@benjamingoward6340]

very systematic. I like it

[@stephenwhite5444]

Have you ever set up scaffolding on uneven concrete where the foot didn't sit flat on the concrete? I thought about getting some swivel feet jacks but for some reason the idea of swivel feet makes me feel less secure about things haha. Wonder if you ever use them and how you like them.

[@HandyGuy2016]

Definitely want to use feet jacks for leveling and stability. I also have some with locking wheels for concrete and pavement.

[@nemo9396]

But how do you do this with multiple levels?

[@yankjones166]

Agnus Dei was

[@abejepun93]

Can I ask? How to remove simen in scaffolding

[@johncreegan3369]

Love your nature sounds...where are you located..which State?

[@HandyGuy2016]

MO. South Central MO is very pretty and full of wildlife and nature, lots of rivers, conservation, and hiking areas.

[@RonaldDCass]

@@HandyGuy2016 we're in Ozark county south of Ava. Moved from Wisconsin 2 years ago.

[@JsCrazyCutzLLC]

Looks like you've done that before.

[@jsmitty300036]

Why not put x brace on after u get screw legs in first jack then it will lean on ground. Bring other screw legs and jack over put legs in jack stand it up and bam connect them. That way you ain’t handling shit multiple times.

[@HandyGuy2016]

That would work too 😊

[@Clouseau17]

What size are they?

[@PeacefulThoughts303]

You've done that a few times

[@TT-ik3kd]

Some minty planks

[@macbirt56]

I assume you couldn't just link the three ends with cross braces to form two linked sections, because you made your own planks and they wouldn't fit because of the interference?

[@rickobrien4025]

That would be a yes...until I saw the home-made plank, I was wondering why he didn't just join the 3rd frame to the first two . And without the notches, if you make your own plank, have a 12 inch overhang on each end .

[@desmondjrjohnston6315]

well-done

[@dylusional419]

I'm here just because the ladder goes on the inside. Lmao

[@craigwyss6035]

Is this buck scaffold?

[@HandyGuy2016]

Home Depot supplies it, but I don't remember the brand.

[@micho-videos4673]

Really! All you need is 3 frames and real planks.

[@pedrovega8588]

His scaffold is a total high risk and dangerous

[@Neoprenesiren]

Scaffolds sure are expensive

[@roberthawkinson9765]

Not to mention the walk boards. Get some light aluminum that snaps in to the bucks. Quit wasting your time and wearing out your shoulders.

[@joproductions2009]

U can tell he has no experience .. Lol

[@Aaronistheman.]

Cheek of you calling that dirt scaffolding. Also a terrible effort. Not even a sole board or handrail or anything. Shocking.

[@roberthawkinson9765]

Sorry but you wasted a buck and you didn't not have to go that far past the corner to have to do that. Good luck with the rest of your projects.

[@miguelvazquez8627]

Not safe
