Spencer took over operations in 2006 after his father, Tom Luckey, became paralyzed. Spencer has been responsible for the design, fabrication and installation of the climbers.[6][7][8] While the head of Luckey Climbers, Spencer has introduced digitally-based techniques of shaping and structural analysis, his work marks a departure from the analogue mode of his father.[9] Luckey Climbers has expanded internationally.
