Thanks Floyd!

[COLOR="Purple"]I took Floyd's advice and picked up one of the Werner wide tread three step step stools. I wish it was 2" taller at the top step but overall, it should work fine. A plus I hadn't considered is that it folds to less than 3" thick so will take up less room when travelling.

Hi Bill,
You just add a 2" piece of hard foam to the top tread for a little extra height. A hard rubber or foam would work great and maybe even be easier on the feet. There are a few materials that are readily available.
I bet the wide treads are nicer huh? I always liked the wide treads and the handle for holding at the top. Plus, you can add an EP holder to the upper tray.
How do you like the curved spyder? I do like mine.
