    Can he stand on the 1-1/2” edge and balance? Very difficult. I can and not very many others can.

    It used to not bother me to walk the lengths of bar joist or step across from 1 C purlin to the next but now if there is not a platform under me I ain't the one.

    We used to do that with a long pole. And you can stand on a half sheet of plywood with no problems. Brush out your place and your golden. Just a different way, a hard way to do a rather simple job.
