[QUOTE="nailsbeats, post: 5940, member: 784"] I dreamed up a new attachment at work today, a man-basket on the end of a boom. I figure you could build one to reach 20 feet(just a guess so far). Here is my plan, take my existing universal quicktach and mount an 11 foot steel boom to it that goes up at 45 degrees when quicktach is straight up and down. Build a boom truck style basket out of diamond plate aluminum and mount the top of the side to the end of the boom, so it will self level. Finally, put latter rungs going up the boom so you could get in and out yourself. The bucket will also be removable so you could use the boom alone. I could see it being handy for construction or tree trimming. Note: Not Dielectrically Safe! Any thoughts on this for personal use. [/QUOTE]
