They are best for holding screwdrivers and nut-drivers. The larger holes can hold hammers and drills. 2) The small tab on the front can hold the wire handle of a paint bucket. 3) The concentric circles on the top of the ladder can also hold paint cans of various sizes. 4) The small pocket on top of the ladder can hold hardware and fasteners. For extra security, you can glue a rare earth magnet to the underside of the hardware pocket. 5) Utility hooks--or "sky hooks"--can be added to power tools, providing you with a way to hang them from various points on the step ladder. 6) Cord Control on step ladder is very important. Tie your power cord to the top support rung on the back of the ladder to keep it from pulling on any small corded power tools you're using. If you enjoyed the video, please hit LIKE AND SUBSCRIBE!
