You'll need hand rails, a safety harness or a parachute up that high, that is in scaffolding territory 
A person may fail many times, they only become a failure when they blame someone else John Burrows

Re: Painters Trestles
I don,t need to go that high just want a bit extra height as the bases are wider the higher they go. Will give more stabilityT1 Terry wrote: ↑Thu Oct 25, 2018 10:11 ammottleemob wrote: ↑Wed Oct 24, 2018 11:14 pm I am after a couple of trestles for using with a plank.

Re: Painters Trestles
Phil,
You can buy an aluminium one about 4ft long from the B.G.Shed: $50 or so. Adjusts from low workbench height to painting-the-gutters height.
I have one. Quite stable & easily carried solo.
Alternatively, get online and for about $100 (delivered) you can buy one of those '24-in-one' ladders advertised on TV as "not available in shops!"
Three hinge points with 3-position locks, and they come with drop-in sheets of metal (fully edged & punched for rigidity & drainage safety) to provide a good work platform. Have one of them, too.
Will post pics if you're interested.

Phil,
Visited local Bunnings yesterday.
They have the three-hinged ladders I mentioned for $99!
