ABSTRACT:
A scaffolding system for holding and hanging wallboard in an overhead orientation while using only a mechanic and one helper is disclosed. The invention comprises a plurality of braces in a vertical, opposed, parallel relationship, having paired upstanding side members for maintaining a stable, untippable status. Each side member further has a recess on a lower end adapted for receiving a wheel for mobility. A plurality of rigid sections are horizontally disposed within the braces and form a platform for the mechanic and helper to stand on. A plurality of ladders urge the helper to mount one of the side braces after the wallboard is resting on a plurality of pintles against the side members. A plurality of wheels provide mobility for the system without disassembly of the system as the wallboard is installed overhead.
