DIY painter

looking at his setup, safety doesn't seem to be high on his list.  He was lucky that he completed the job without any problems.

  1. Hi Bill.

    It does indeed look a bit wobbly.

    Greetings from Patricia.

  5. Bom dia com muita paz e saúde. Uma excelente segunda-feira. Não tenho esse talento e quem faz pintura, proteção total sempre.

  7. It's so great to see someone who can still do this. Although, I wish there were better ways to get the job done.

  9. I wonder why bother putting up all the scaffolding if he is just going to use a ladder? He is way up further than I would go.

  13. So, his skafolding looks like it's based on the road. I hope the cars don't hit it.

  18. I have let it hang far over the edge far too many times in the past in the interest of the job or the task or the pet. Those days are behind me and I feel comfortable. Remaining safe and happy and enjoying every possible day left to me. Essay completed LOL have a great day! Bill, Aloha!

  22. What was he reaching for? a window?
    yes, I agree with you about safety. I wonder why install scaffolding and not use it?

  30. I think he is well protected, although I don't know if he has life insurance. All the best, dear friend.☘️

  31. I love roller coasters and other high rides but don't like standing on a step stool or ladder.
