What have you made?
Liam:
Can you 'drive' it when you're stood in it? Looks fun for precarious dodgems.
Rick K:
Thanks guys, I appreciate it! I am actually extremely lucky to have this job, i started when I was 14 and now I am the only full time employee other than my two bosses, and I love working with leather!
A magazine editor actually came to our shop all the way from North Carolina (we are in Ontario) to do an article on our little shop

Its got a 4m working height (your head height fully extended), needs to fit through a regular door so about 680mm wide, maybe 1.2m long. It's basically there to replace step ladders, which are a health and safety nightmare nowadays, so they're getting sold to all sorts. So far a big supermarket here has taken them on for stock picking, several girly clothes chains have had custom ones for doing window displays, the shard in london has them for building services, microsoft bought a load for working on their european main server, etc,etc, i think theres a few hundred out there already.
This one you just push around, starting on a drive-able 6m one next year, thats going to be a bitch to keep from falling over, the testing required is ruthless.
thirks:
meat, it sounds like you have a fucking bad ass job. take me on as a tea boy?

Just finished up 3 of these. One was for a silent auction the other as gifts. Not to bad as I have not woodworked in the last 4 years.
