A heavy hitter broke the top ladder step on my 1969 45c. Is there an after market for these or am I going to have to make it?

Ladder step.

Re: Ladder step.
I had a carpenter beef up the teak treads on my ladder. It was pretty simple. If the broken step isn't totally destroyed you can probably epoxiy is back together enough to use as a basis for the new one. What we did was add another piece of teak on top of the existing. It turned out well. There is no "off the rack" replcement that I am aware of.

Re: Ladder step.
All,I have made two sets of ladder steps. I am a furniture manufacturer so I have equipment to do the job. I would be happy to make one or more steps for you and/or others. Only cost would be materials and shipping. Best to send me a sample to duplicate.PM me for phone or email.Kevin
