[TowerTalk] ROHN Work Platform

[RICHARD BOYD]

I can't speak to whether they still make them, but...

I acquired one each for 25 and 45 in takedowns (wouldn't have occurred to me to buy them outright) and they are
great.  Much more comfortable than standing on "rungs."  Often you do stand at one place a long time working on
something.

They can be tricky to figure out how to hang them until you get used to them.  'Til then you're horsing it around
saying "What the heck!?"  73 - Rich, KE3Q

  Does ROHN still make and sell the work platform (I
  think that's what it's called) that attached to the
  tower so you have something to stand on other than the
  horizontal braces? I spent an hour+ on the tower after
  work on Tuesday night putting the prop pitch back
  together after a rebuild. After standing in mostly the
  same spot for that length of time my feet were
  hurting. Tower is R25. I was wearing heavy work boots
  so I had plenty of support. I think they made these
  work platforms for R25 and 45. Are they useful or not?
  I would have loved to have one on Tuesday!
