well, this is good for someone like you and me

BUT...

i seen a dude climb a ladder with the tools you describe

one tool slips...the other tool is fixed on the overhead bar. the bar
is loaded
from the spring...it spins around and goes into his wrist...it rips out
his
wrist basically

don't encourage this sort of thing

you should say...

"I am experienced with this sort of thing"

it is not for average homeowner

sure, if they had the right knowledge it could be painless and easy
but it's a once in a lifetime matter for most and they should
hire a professional
