No mason in his right mind would use a scaffold this narrow for a chimney. Stability sucks over one frame high & is just too dangerous; especially loaded with masonry. It's just a European form of Baker scaffold primarily used on house interiors. Standard approved scaffold here in USA is 5 ft wide not 3. Suggest you peddle your UE/BS to unknowing neophytes elsewhere.
