The PC foldable ladder system

Post by Tony »

Hey guys, I want to show you an amazing foldable ladder that was designed by Mr Peter Conan. I have been racking my brain to come up with some sort of "bolt on" arrangement that can be removed when not in use. The guys at Big Country wanted to drill and bolt plates into the body and were getting all technical when I bumped into a certain Mr Conan, who showed me his little invention!! Take a look at this, no drilling, no fuss, no mess - and 5min. to remove completely.

That is amazing, PATENT worthy! I reckon you could make a lot of money off that pete, so many overladners would go for that. Well done.
