I have a tall bookcase that requires a ladder. Where can I find one online? I have searched eBay and Yahoo and have found nothing. Ikea sells them, but we don't have any Ikea stores in my state, and if I order one from their site, they will charge me over $300 just to ship it. If you know of an online store that sells nice, reasonably priced ladders for use with bookcases, please let me know. Thanks!
My town doesn't have a Home Depot either.
I'm looking for something like this that doesn't have to be attached to a wall:

I have a high, lofted ceiling in my attic and I need to stand on a ladder to repair a duct. I was thinking of getting some plywood up there and laying it over the rafter and standing on the ladder that way, but I don't know what I'm doing. How can I stand on a ladder in my attic?

Hello,
I have a driveway that comes down and wraps around the house. I'll estimate it at slightly under 45 degrees. I need to get up a ladder to install a bathroom vent on the second floor from that side. How do I place a ladder on my sloped driveway without it tipping over? Sounds like a math problem, but its not! Thanks for any useful advice.

You can buy the ladders, and even have them custom made, but they cost close to 1,000.
I know how to build an angled ladder.
But I am building a loft bed (6 feet high), and I want to have an angled ladder that travels back and forth.
I want it to be safe, and similar in design to the ones at the library, barnes noble etc.
What hardware would I need, and can I get it at Home depot or Loewes? I am open to interesting ideas.
