I wouldn't look forward to having to hook a towable lift each time I had
to go to a different pole either.

Keep in mind the majority of bucket trucks will not let you use the bucket
unless the truck is stopped with the outriggers extended. Using this for
stringing is painful - park, outriggers, in the bucket, do your work, down,
out, outriggers, move, and repeat. Efficiency is not good. You are
probably better with a manlift you can drive yourself if you don’t have the
correct bucket truck.

I'm framing from a ladder, and could use a ladder to string, but I'm hanging
adss and am not sure I'm going to be able to get the grip off of the cable from
a ladder. Plus the man lift just seems a lot more stable. A bucket truck would
be best, but I can't find those for rent.

I used to build aerial with hooks, brace and bit and wrenches.
Pulled the lasher by hand etc. Can be done.

never stop being concerned
The cable company has a mix of boom trucks and van mount booms. Id like to try one of the van ones, but i think the base takes up the bulk of the cargo area. I just like the idea of driving it right where you need it instead of a trailer pull.
Id looked at doing an aerial fiber patch from a location to my house to pick up anything i could along the way. I honestly planned on seeing if i could pull it off from a pole ladder

I need a manlift for stringing some fiber. I'm going the maximum height without
being in the power zone (40" below neutral). Has anyone used a standard
articulating manlift for something like this? They aren't insulated (other than the
tires) which concerns me a bit, even though I'll be well below the neutral.
