Best improvised moment with a ladder, for me, was having a 25’ft peak on a home that had a small covered entry way below the peak that came out to far.
It prevented a ladder from being positioned correctly to paint out the soffit, house, and trim boards up top.
Screw hauling in scaffolding or a lift. I just backed my painting van up next to the entryway, put my 28’ft ladder on the vans roof and secured the ladder legs with straps.
Worked great...OSHA would have wrote me some tasty fines, if they saw it.

Damn straight. I've had that same 32' ladder fully maxed with legs in my truckbed up against my cab. Very sturdy actually.....
You’re definitely a brother from another mother about ladders.
Sometimes, you just have to go with what will work. Might not look correct. But, sturdy is key, no matter what a dude has to do to get it that way.
