Subsequently, an extension ladder with self-leveling feet is shown being used to paint a stucco wall near an overhang. The presenter highlights the importance of self-leveling feet for stability on uneven ground, stressing that safety should always be the top priority.

What they say

Hide

know, step ladders right here. I'm using them and using them to spray, you know, stucco here. I've got an extension ladder right here with self-leveling feet, you know, a 24 ft ladder. I use these ladders for all kinds of different scenarios. On this project we're working on, you know, there was a scenario where I had to straddle a fence to be able to, you know, paint a sophet and paint a gutter and get where I needed to get. There's another an overhang on another one of the buildings. I had no idea how I was actually going to do the sopets and fascia on that overhang. I ended up using a 28 ft ladder uh at a angle. I laid it on the overhanging roof, extended it out, walked up that to actually, you know, paint the sophet. It's a little bit about ladders. Once again, I can't, you know, stress enough, you know, like um you know, having the proper equipment, you know, to do the job. This one painter, I went out to his job site and he had to, you know, paint some windows um some trim around windows on some stucco and it was on a slope, you know, and he's putting rocks and things like that underneath the the ladders. Safety should always come first. And if you've got to do stuff like that, you know, it's not worth risking your health and your life to do
