I want a ladder to hang my quilts on. Recently we had a windstorm and blew down a lot of limbs and trees. A friend had a gumball tree ( I think it is) and the upper branches are pretty clear of bark. WE salvaged two of them about 10 feet each and about 4 to 5 inches diameter and some smaller branches to make the rungs. Do any of you have any experience or ideas as to how to attach the rungs to the side pieces? I think we thought about nailing them first and then for decoration using leather strips or twine type stuff. All this and you can buy one on Ebay for $30.

ebay yes, but, urs will be sturdy, hand made and last a lifetime.... plus is "green" earth friendly and is recycling what would have other wise gone to the dump.
Then u have the feeling of accomplishment of making it ur self, u can customize the actual size of it as well as knowing where it came from, AMERICA ( I hope ur from America.... no offense if ur in another country)
