With a ladder this size, we could use it for working on the ceilings everywhere - and mesh could use it for our Sunday node mounts.</div><div><br></div><div>The cost is $674.80, so I'm proposing the following financial split:</div><div>* Omni - $330</div><div>* Sudo - $115</div><div>* CCL - $115</div><div>* Sudo Mesh - $115</div><div><br></div><div>Ideas on how best to securely store it? <br></div><br></div>Please let me know asap if there are any blocking concerns or better ideas.
