- Alois Diethelm is considered the last tree ladder maker in Switzerland
Alois Diethelm-Signer from Sattel has been producing tree ladders for fruit crops for 60 years. In 1966, he took over the business for the ladder maker Josef Nussbaumer in Sattel, from whom he learned the trade. He is considered the last of his guild. Together with one employee he used to make up to 300 ladders a year. Today he makes only 40 of them. This is partly due to the change in agriculture. Fruit cultivation has declined and in the past cherries used to grow mostly on high trunk trees. That is why his tree ladders, which can be up to twelve metres, are needed less and lesser.
To build his ladders Alois Diethelm uses entire poles from young spruce trunks. The rungs are made of hardwood. For the sake of better stability, the ladders are built conically. This conical construction leads to a lower centre of gravity, provides more safety and makes positioning the ladder to the tree easier. Fruit pickers particularly appreciate the unique handiness and durability of his tree ladders.
In the past, Alois Diethelm built together with an employee at least one ladder a day, and his two sons also helped. Twenty years ago, the demand steadily decreased. Today he does manufactures alone and his wife supports him. Alois Diethelm is retired and still does it because he enjoys it.

A beautiful and heartwarming story. Best wishes to Aloïs and his wife. May their ladder be long.
Many thanks for your kind words. They will be very pleased to read your wishes. With best regards from Switzerland.
Sage ihnen bitte eine große Danke Vielmals von mir! Mein Sohn hat mir dieses Video gezeigt und ich freue mich sehr an alle die Kunst und Arbeit mit der Natur!!
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Ich danke Ihnen herzlich für Ihre Rückmeldung. Das macht Freude. Mit den allerbesten Wünschen und Dank.
Very nice. A man who loves his work and a customer that appreciates his product. The world needs more of this.
Thank you very much for your kind words. Highly appreciated. With the very best regards from Switzerland.
Man you hit the nail right ON the head with that one. With all the money chasing these days, people have lost touch with the fact that there is NO better, more solid ground on which to stand than taking pride in your work and the quality and consideration you provide to others.
@@noea135 Tan verdadero. Un muy buen equipo.
@@noea135 Muchas gracias por vernos y por su amable comentario. Nos alegramos mucho. Saludos cordiales desde Suiza.
Großartig das es noch solche Handwerker gibt.
Herzlichen Dank für ihre Rückmeldung. Das freut uns sehr.
Nöd mehr lang
They don’t exist, he’s literally the last
Спасибо за прекрасное видео и за великолепное дело! Это дело очень важное - сохранение традиционного столярного мастерства! Хорошо видно, что в натуральное изделие мастер вкладывает не только своё умение и опыт, но делает это с любовью. Как мы говорим в России "душу вкладывает"! Спасибо! Здоровья и долгих лет жизни Вам и Вашим близким.
Уважаемый Олег, большое спасибо за просмотр и добрые слова. Мы были очень рады их получить. С наилучшими пожеланиями и добрым приветом в Россию из Швейцарии.
I am completely in awe of this man and his ladders. The fact that he started doing this right out of school and is still making them today is amazing. I wish I had one of his ladders and I only have two peach trees. Here's to you Alois and many ladders in the future.
Thank you very much for watching and for your kind comment. All the very best wishes to you and your loved ones, great health and happiness. Take good care of your peach trees.
I can't get over how light weight and confidence inspiring these ladders are. I've been up a few tall ladders in my time and these look superb.
I just hope someone takes this skill up as a craft hobby because enough of the traditional skills have already been lost. We are all poorer for that.
Gorgeous, all the best.
Thank you so much for your kind comment. These represent indeed a fabulous weight to stability performance. Nothing beats a naturally grown resource. With best wishes from Switzerland.
@@AlainHospenthal I framed houses for many years in the states and then went on the other carpenter work later in life, I cannot tell you enouth how awesome these ladders would be to work with. Keep up the good work and best wishes from Iowa, Alain!
No one to pass your art on. Your craftsmanship will be gone forever. God Bless you and your wife.
Thank you Mr. Chong for watching and your kind word. With our best wishes from Switzerland.
Wow! I'm 66 years old and went through an electrical apprenticeship when I was a young man. " Apprenticeship is the nucleus of craftsmanship " was the logo of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers. Your craft has been passed on for generations. Please don't let it die. Robots can't replace this. People working and building things with their own hands is what is missing in todays world. It gives us a sense of well being and accomplishment. God bless you both and may bod bless crafsmen.
Dear Mr. Buell, many thanks for sharing your story and for your heartfelt comment. We send our very best wishes from Switzerland.
Amen
Agreed 100%. 👍👍
Well said
@@AlainHospenthal ,
Why do I get the feeling this man and his wife could teach so many people today what's really important in life. I love the dedication not only to the craft but also towards each other. Makes me proud to know my Homestead is somewhere in the Swiss Countryside and sad I will probably never visit.
Dear Mr. Hostetler, many thanks for watching and your kind words. Indeed Mr. and Mrs. Diethelm are role models for us all. With our best wishes from Switzerland. We trust this finds you in good health and happiness.
You are not wrong

Trying not to cry, this is beautiful - thank you all.
Thank you for watching and expressing your emotion. We trust this finds you in good health and great happiness. Kind regards from Switzerland.
Its so sad that these type of people today don t have students to teach them this old crafts. This is something beautiful,hand made with love and heart,you can not get it today. This grandpa and grandma reminds me of my childhood and the time I watched my late granda and my grandma working also together,great memories for me,working on our farm in Serbia. Thank you for reminding me that life in some long time ago was much happyer,simpler and bether than we have today. This type of man and woman build this world,build us as persons and teaceh us what life is. All the best from Serbia.
Thank you so much for your heartfelt comment. Alois and Maria are great examples amd their values touch us all. Thank you also for sharing your family story, we feel deeply touched. With kind regards from Switzerland to Serbia.
What an incredible Man and his wife. I love the fact he still makes these ladders. These skills will all be lost in another generation or two. More importantly it appears the pride in the craftsmanship is also disappearing. Thank you for making this video available for the world to watch.
Thank you very much for watching and your kind words. Highly appreciated. With the very best regards from Switzerland. Many many thanks.
".. in 1 or 2 gens"? When he passes, this skill will be lost, though because he has made this video, it may be "rediscovered" at some future date
He does everything pretty much by sight and feel…roller plane just on one side of the bottom to the board
If only schools would present this content in the classroom. So much in this video from which to teach and learn- true craftsmanship, genuine work ethic, pride in one’s work, team work, on and on and on.I wish for both husband and wife team continued health so as to be able to make ladders as long as they wish. Thank you for allowing me into your workshop .
We would indeed be very pleased to see our video in class rooms. Many thanks for watching and your valuable feedback. Our best wishes from Switzerland.
It is so nice to see husband and wife working so happily. The love he puts into each ladder is admirable. This real talent and skill is what must be preserved. ASMR video. God bless you and your wife Alois. Any vacancies for interns??
Hello Leslie, thank you for watching and your kind comment. It‘s interesting you mention ASMR, as this has been inspiring me for years. We trust this finds you in great health and happiness. With our very best wishes from Switzerland.
He didn't say no!
A tradesman makes something useful. A craftsman makes something useful that is also beautiful. Alois is a truse craftsman. What a wonderful film.
Thank you very much. Our best wishes.

Wonderful story - loved how they arrived to work on bikes and not in two huge SUVs. These two people are in balance with the world they live in and makes a quality product of something fully natural 😊
Yes some talk, some live. The past generations where living way more sustainable and apparently also happier. We don‘t need all that stuff. It leads nowhere. Consumerism is the greatest plague this planet has ever faced. With our best wishes from Switzerland.
You are a true living legend mate!
Your ladders and craftsmanship are perfect! and as the world heads into disrepair, these ladders will always be apart of history.
Thanks for sharing your story

Fabulous craftsmanship. I sincerely hope that this video opens up an export market for Herr Diethelm and that his sons have to come back to help him meet the world demand. His ladders look like a perfect blend of art and craft. Who would have thought I'd watch a half hour video about making a wooden ladder.

Ganz schönes Handwerk. Vor ca. 75 Jahren kletterte ich auf ähnlichen Leitern auf Bäume hoch. Diese Arbeit wird von einem geübten, harmonischen Paar ausgeübt. Gut gelungenes Video, macht Freude.
Herzlichen Dank Frau Schurtenberger. Ihr Kommentar macht Freude. Mit freundlichen Grüsse, Alain Hospenthal
Super Sache.
Spreche zwar nicht Schweizerdeutsch, aber hab alles verstanden (bin aus Ö).
Alois spricht sehr klar und deutlich und erklärt den Prozess super!
Wir haben auch noch alte Baumleitern zu Hause, die mit Sicherheit über 60 Jahre alt sind. Die brauchen wir aber nicht mehr, da unser Kirschenbaum leider gefällt werden musste.
Tolle Dokumentation über einen vergessenen Beruf!
Herzliche Grüsse nach Österreich und danke für Ihren freundlichen Kommentar. Wir hoffen ihr Kirschbaum findet eine schöne Wiederverwendung als Möbel oder geschätzter Parketboden.
Ich liebe die alte Technik, das alte wissen und "Schwitzer Dütsch"🎉. Danke dafür ❤

I envy this guy, he creates something and loves doing it. I sit in an office and go under from stress, I can see that his way is way better and gives him peace and calm
You will find what is right for you. The office is probably what provides income but not satisfaction. Try reducing income, reducing living standard, increase happiness and time for you. With our very best wishes from Switzerland.
Been there. I'm glad I invested while working, now retired. The office life wore me down to a lump after poop.. Now I can pick fruit or make ladders. Currently, Building a stone patio.
Edit: and watching too much ytube.

I used to watch my Dad making wooden 5 bar gates from larch. All mortise and tennon joints done with a hand bit and brace ( before the invention of cordless tools !) and every joint pegged with a wooden dowel. They were "rainy day" jobs and I used to love eavesdropping on the "adult" conversation between him and his two colleagues !

Guten Tag Herr Reh, besten für ihre freundliche Rückmeldung. Gerne leite ich das so weiter. Wenn Sie mal in die Schweiz kommen, können Sie sich vorgängig eine machen lassen. Herr Diethelm macht von 10 Sprossen aufwärts so ziemlich alle Grössen und dies zu erschwinglichen Preise. Auch Ihnen liebe Grüsse und DANK.
@@AlainHospenthal Guten Tag Herr Hospenthal, vielen Dank für Ihre herzliche Antwort!
Gerne würde ich solch eine Leiter mein Eigen nennen, ich wäre sogar außerordentlich Stolz darauf. Ich habe einen Freund in der Schweiz er wohnt in Bubikon, ich weiß nicht wie weit das entfernt ist aber vielleicht lässt sich das ja irgendwie realisieren.
Liebe Grüße über die Berge ⛰️🏔️, Thilo 🦌🌳
@@thiloreh3195 Hallo Herr Reh, Bubikon ist nur 45 Minuten von hier entfernt. Ihr Freund könnte die Leiter allenfalls für Sie abholen und bar bezahlen? Sie könnten sie Leiter über die Webseite von Herrn Diethelm bestellen. Ich grüsse Sie.
My wife and I go because our son and his family live in Basel. It is the most Beautiful country and the people are just so wonderful.
Thank you for sharing Robert Koenig
Thank you for sharing about your upcoming visit to Basel. Mr. Diethelm also delivers his ladder to the Basel areau (Basel-Land), since there are also many cherry trees there. Kind regards and best wishes.

Hier in der Fränkischen Schweiz wurden bis zur Erfindung der Aluleitern auch Holzleitern verwendet. Mein Vater war einer der letzten Leiternmacher. Er hat wirklich alles in Handarbeit gemacht, es waren einzigartige Kunstwerke. Respekt und Anerkennung für das Werk dieses Mannes.
Sehr geehrter Herr Thäter, besten Dank für das Teilen ihrer Geschichte. Sie haben wirklich einen sehr direkten Bezug zum Thema. Ihre Rückmeldung hat uns sehr gefreut. Mit freundlichen Grüssen sus der Zentralschweiz.
Ein paar km südlich der Fränkischen Schweiz: Hab vor kurzem eine alte Winde (Zahnstange und Kurbel) aus einer ehem. Wagnerei gerettet. Die Enden sind rund gebogen. Erst wußte ich nicht, wofür die Winde verwendet wurde. Dank Internet hab ich aber recht schnell rausgefunden, daß solche Winden zum Leiterbau genommen wurden. In unserer Gegend hatte man neben Obstleitern auch Hopfenleitern. Die haben hinten eine dritte Stange zum Ausklappen - so daß die Leiter alleine stehen kann. Die beiden Stangen, rechts und links der Sprossen, sind stark gebogen, so daß die Leiter unten sehr breit wird um zu verhindern, daß sie zur Seite umfällt. Ich vermute, die Winde war nötig um die Biegung hinzubekommen. Da hätte ein Exzenterhebel, wie im Film gezeigt, nicht gereicht.
Vielen Dank für den Film! Ich hab mich immer gefragt, wie die Stangen hergestellt wurden. Der Film hat mir die Fragen jetzt beantwortet. Wenn ich mal dazu komme, werde ich mir ein paar fränkische Leitern bauen. Alte Muster sind noch da.
@@lindareu6137 Das freut mich sehr, dass der Film Sie zum Bau eigener Leitern inspiriert. Das mit der Winde war mir nicht bekannt, macht aber durchaus Sinn zum kontinierlichen Biegen über einen längeren Zeitraum. Herzlichen Dank und freundliche Grüsse.
@@AlainHospenthal Können Sie mir sagen, warum runde UND eckige Sprossen verwendet werden? Hier in Franken ist das bei Obstleitern auch so. Meine Hopfenleitern haben nur eckige Sprossen.
@@lindareu6137 Grüezi Frau Reu, es wird im Film kurz erwähnt. Die eckigen Rippen bestimmen insbesondere die Breite, da diese entsprechend zugeschnitten sind. Auch werden diese am Schluss vernagelt. Die Runden Sprossen verfügen zwar auch über einen Absatz, würden aber mit der Zeit tiefer in die Holmen eindringen, bzw. sich ohne die vernagelten Rippen mit der Zeit herausarbeiten. Mit den besten Grüssen aus der Schweiz.
❤❤❤ Old man you did a hell of a good job. And thanks to your wife who helped you. It's a pity old crafts are replaced by modern machinery. The cherry plantation was the bonus for the eyes.
Thank you Samad for watching and your kind comment. With our best wishes from Switzerland.
Mein Vater benutzte auch immer eine Holzleiter! Ich habe mir noch nie Gedanken über das dazugehörige Handwerk gemacht. Vielen Dank für die Einblicke. Toller Film ! 👍🥰
Danke für Ihre freundliche Rückmeldung. Herzliche Grüsse aus Goldau.
I didn't think I would last for 27 minutes watching this vid. But I'm sure glad I did.
So many good feelings now!
That makes us happy, indeed. Many thanks for your kind words. With our best wishes from Switzerland.
I aspire to be like this man. What an amazing life he has carved out for himself.
Truly a way to look at it. Mr. Diethelm is a modest man and all he every tried to do is fulfill his duty and be kind to everybody. He succeeded. With our best wishes from Switzerland.
Nice to see keeping old traditions. Many thanks. Be well

Greetings from Scotland! What an incredible craftsman at work....making old style beautiful pieces so skilfully. All the best to Alois and his missus.
Our very best wishes to Scotland. Thank you for watching and your kind words.
I'm in the USA, what a awesome video. The man builds the ladder and shows each step how he does it, an I really love to see the old tools he used to build it. Take for example the ladder rung squeezer or setter, what a great idea the person had when they built that tool. Then at the end showing the cherry farmer using the tree ladder the guy built for him that day. I'm 54 now and as a young man I remember using wooden ladders everyday but not built that way, ones I used were heavy because they had steel support bars at each rung. But this video was a real treat for me this morning to get to watch it all. Thank you so much for making this video and sharing it with the world. Now it can be watched anytime by anyone.
Thank you Terry. We are happy you enjoyed this film. Highly appreciated. We trust this finds you in great health amd happiness. God bless.

Mein Vater hat kurz vor seinem Tod im Jahr 2015 einige Leitern bei ihnen gekauft, eine davon hat er mir gegeben. Es ist eine Leiter mit 18 Seigeln,, die ich vorallem für das Baumschneiden brauche. Nie würde ich diese Leiter gegen eine Aluleiter tauschen. Ich achte darauf, dass sie trocken gelagert ist, damit sie lange hält. Hoffentlich können sie ihr Handwerk an einen Jungen weitergeben. Leute wie Sie achte und schätze ich hoch ein. Vielen Dank!
Sehr gerne leite ich ihre Nachricht an Herr Diethelm weiter und wünsche Ihnen einen wunderbaren Sonntag.
Absolutely, loved this production. Being a tool guy, I appreciate the mix of old tools with new. It's fascinating how a skinny tree can be turned into a needed orchard tool, used to reap a cherry harvest. Cherry cider is the best! All the best from Montana to Alois and his wife.
Thank you for your kind comment. Yes, these ladders are unique as they really make use of the original strength of the tree, as it grew, providing the same to a new purpose, carrying a similar amount of weight. Our very best wishes and many thanks for watching.
was für wundervolle Menschen das sind

Very enjoyable to watch. Much prefer the wooden ladders myself - and to realise a 40 year lifespan is just incredible. Get two as a gift when you're born and you're essentially set for life. One sits in storage until the other is required. Beautiful
Thank you very much for your kind feedback. These ladders indeed last a long time and propably represent the best option when it comes to sustainability With kind regards from Switzerland.

Thank you sir. It is always a pleasure too watch an expert at work. It makes me smile to see how well you and your wife work together and that you've done it so long that there is little that needs to be said. That is a wonderful thing in my opinion. It's nice to have a "Hobby" and it's even nicer that that hobby can produce a little extra money. it can help those around you with a quality tool that will last a possibly will last a long time. It is a legacy that will survive and that is something to be proud of.
