"The Ladder Shop" of the San Francisco Fire Department
Переглядів 35 тис.9 років тому
The San Francisco Fire Department is one of the only departments in the world that builds its own wooden ladders. They use wood for many reasons in San Francisco. See why they make their own ladders and the history of many of these wooden ladders that are more than 100 years old.
The wooden ladder is unique to California. As San Fran is not the only fire dept in California to use them

If you Google search the San Francisco fire department. Everyone on their Leadership and Command Staff page must be fired ASAP. This is a racist, hateful agency supported by tax dollars. The devil is a liar. God is the Truth the Way and the Life.
Fascinating! Thanks for the story.
Please note that our former corporation, Dalmatian Productions, Inc., created this video in April 2010, when we spent 4 days with the great members of the SFFD! They went out of their way to accommodate and include us. Narrating this video is our late partner and dear friend, Joel Connable. Joel was a multi-Emmy Award winning news anchor and an honor to have as a partner and friend. This video was nominated for a Suncoast Emmy Award in 2010. Our sincere appreciation to all the members of the SFFD and our hosts at Station 7.
Amazing video. Well produced. I remember when it first appeared. My condolences on your loss.
@@owensweetland342 Thank you, Owen for your kind words! Stay Safe & Stay Well!
Very cool
Cure for 15 years? That sounds like a little to long of a time. Especially today with "machines" that can cure wood rather quickly.
Experience has taught me that anything done in a hurry is done wrong.
It’s taxpayer funded. Three guys probably have to supervise the entire time.
Dirty Jobs.
Los Angeles City Fire Dept and LA County ALSO use Wooden Ladders!
The LA dept’s purchase their ladders as compared to SFFD who makes theirs.
@@ME4711 It doesn't matter if you make them yourself, or buy them. Wood ladders are far superior.
@@smorris281 the craft of making and repairing the ladders for over 125 years is the cool thing about SFFD’s. Of course they’re superior.
Great video. Lead fire instructor sent me here. I was very surprised how long a correctly constructed wooden ladder can last. Amazing
Use to build and also fix and tag wooden ladders here in New Zealand for the fire brigade …now they buy Aluminium ladder from the UK … The power board here in NZ now buy fiberglass ones, instead of the timber one that they use to have from Australia …welcome to the 21 century …
I much preferred the wooden ones over the aluminum!
@@fireman257 I prefer to have timber ones over aluminum and fiberglass.
Wood doesn't conduct electricity? Don't bet your life on it.
I think they do bet their life on it ;)
