Shoutout to the old school drywall stilts still kicking around

I keep seeing people on here trying to hang drywall from ladders or those cheap platform steps, and they always end up with crooked seams and sore backs. I found a pair of metal Werner stilts at a garage sale for $20 about 8 years ago, and they still work better than any new plastic junk I've tried. Has anyone else stuck with the heavy steel models or am I just too stubborn to upgrade?

Used to think ladders were fine til I borrowed some old metal Werners and now I get it.

My old steel Werners have probably got 200 sheets of drywall on em by now and they still feel solid as a rock. I got mine from a guy who was retiring and they were already beat up, but I'll take that heavy feel over the new aluminum ones any day.
