I purchased this from the Salvos Store yesterday.
Wonderful flashback - I remember the ABC TV show. 😁

Don't remember this product though.
Original packaging.
Everything there - no missing parts.
Just one issue with the "Ladder Leveller" - it's only designed for straight ladder legs - not splayed.
Thoughts/ideas on overcoming this?
Cheers.
Hi @JacobZ
Does it feel stable?
It doesn't look good - does it?! 😁
It's not bad, but I wouldn't try it with a 3 metre ladder. As you appreciate, the tube component must be 'free' from the triangular metal plate so you can change angles - hence there is some inherent movement forwards and backwards, if that makes sense.
In the end it was nostalgia and a desire to see this work that drove me - plus, I'm supporting the Salvation Army charity.
Interestingly, even for an 'Australian Invention' in 1978 - it was manufactured in Taiwan.
Cheers and thanks for watching.
