One of the most useful tools I have around the house is my folding ladder. Urban life means dealing with crowded spaces but my ladder folds down to the size of a 2 x 4 for easy storage! The ladder is light weight and easy to use. The ability to store it in my closet (and not lose any space) makes it essential.

Now what do you do once you have your ladder?
Well... Christopher Bauder turns his into instruments and performs some amazing musical and video pieces. Perhaps a trip to the hardware store is in order for all of you budding musicians out there.
