Prototype ladder safety accessory (ladder buddy)
Donation protected
Hi my name is Andre and I’m fundraising to build a prototype and put into production my invention called the ladder buddy. It a product that I have invented out of necessity as I am a construction worker (siding installer) a lot of times as we work we must put our ladders on top of the material we already put up but with the weight and pressure put on new vinyl it makes marks and damages the product. Also when tearing off old siding on walls sometimes when you get up to gables the studs are placed so far apart that your ladder can fall through the wall and cause severe injury or death. My product is specially designed where it distributes the weight of the two point pressure of the ladder and catches at least 1 stud that can prevent injury or an accident. It’s designed so it doesn’t scuff siding or any wall it is rested against. I do have a patent pending for an industrial patent but am looking for funding to make a real prototype to be manufactured and be sold in stores. I have already tried companies like invent help that only too tens of thousands of my money and now have a class action lawsuit . I feel this product will help prevent injuries to contractors and do it yourself home owners in theirs projects by making working on ladders more safe and easier to work with multiple tools as my design includes a place to put acres , tools and even paint cans .
