Abstract: Ladder attachment apparatus and methods are disclosed. In one embodiment, an attachment apparatus for a ladder includes a main support adapted to be coupled to the ladder approximately parallel to the rungs. The main support includes a first coupling member proximate a first one of the elongated rails of the ladder and a second coupling member proximate another one of the elongated rails. The attachment apparatus further includes first and second support modules removeably coupled to the first and second coupling members, respectively. Each support module includes a support member including a proximal end and a distal end, and a support arm attached to the support member proximate the distal end and projecting outwardly therefrom in a first direction. The support member includes at least one projecting portion that is removeably coupleable to the corresponding one of the first and second coupling members.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus and method to form a soap apparatus having an embedded scrubbing element. In one embodiment, a scrubbing soap bar includes a scrubbing element having a filamentous network with internal void regions and a soap material that substantially surrounds the scrubbing element and at least partially fills the void regions within the scrubbing element. In another embodiment, a method includes forming a scrubbing element from a non-woven and porous material, and infiltrating the non-woven and porous material with a soap material to form the soap bar. In still another embodiment, a method includes positioning a scrubbing element in a mold configured to receive the scrubbing element, adding a soap material to the mold to form a solid bar that encapsulates the scrubbing element, and removing the solid bar from the mold.
