Falling Ladder design was created from a http://Desmos.com graph and converted to an STL.

This thing is a 3D rendering of a 2D graph example in Desmos.com that is named Lists: Falling Ladder https://www.desmos.com/calculator/xdpigkjalg The purpose is to provide a model demonstrating the end product of the conversion of 2D graph in Desmos to a 3D model. As kitwallace points out in the comments, this would be an incorrect solution to a falling ladder problems as the lines are regular intervals. Please feel free to share a correct solution.
Update: New model with x & y axis added.
This thing was converted with Tinkercad. Edit it online https://www.tinkercad.com/things/0XCYFUUkgQE
