Homemade Movable Machinery Servicing Stairs

With his Homemade Movable Machinery Servicing Stairs, Dunkirk, IN, farmer Phillip Boggs is able to easily access his tractors’ engines for routine maintenance. The wood-built unit, which he keeps in front of his farm shop, consists of three steps with handrails on both sides for safety and balance. The vertical distance between the steps is less than normal to accommodate Bogg’s limited leg-lift ability.
