#6 EVEREST OF CARPENTRY | Building a Staircase 

Great book for a beginner . ru-vid.comUgkxD-QRFQz730FJEh4f9BYSf-nkIMIC9hL_ this book really starts from the beginning, as in it explains what basic tools are and how to use them. But when it gets to the art of creating joints and how and when to use them this book really starts to teach you something. At least that was my experience.

It’s an absolute joy to see such craftsmanship. All of the carpentry that you and your Dad do is to an incredibly high standard. Thank you for sharing this with us.

I have been a master carpenter all of my life and worked with the finest and expensive woods there is. If I can say one thing, it will be that you have made me a happy man. Your woodwork is absolutely perfect and done with a great deal of love. Thank you for making me revive my memories.

This staircase is a work of art you can be proud of for the rest of your life. The coolest part is, 300 years from now someone will be able to watch you build it.

This staircase is a work of art. The craftsmanship that you and your dad share with us is an absolute delight to watch. Thank you so much for sharing this journey with us.

I wanna tell you you helped make a special moment with my grandfather who passed about a month ago. He was a master craftsman and carpenter and he affected all of his kids and grandkids like me as we always used to talk about tools and projects and sometimes advice. I remember once soon after it came out I showed him the video of you making that cross and he was amazed at the tools you were using and was very impressed and entertained. It was a special moment we had together thanks to you and I wanna say thank you. Not long before he passed we went to go see him and I made a sign out of an old piece of ash I found I believe from my neighbor and made a sign saying #1 Pops. I brought the blank to my dad's and rounded the corners and added bevels. That night I stayed up until 3:00 in the morning routing out the letters and keeping in mind we had to leave by 5:00 in the morning. It was worth it though and I carried that sign with me on 2 flights to give it to him and he told me I did an amazing job and my uncle told me how much he loved it and hung it in his room where he always sees it whenever he wakes up. My grandma gave it back to keep as a keepsake but thanks for being a partial inspiration for me and making a special moment with my grandfather. He died at age 89.

this has been an extraordinary series. Who knew stairs could be so interesting. They will definitely survive another 300 yrs

It’s great! My shed has been completed and it turned out nice looking and sturdy and it is way better than the sheds that many of my neighbors had put up. Of course, I'm pleased with the outcome and this Ryan’s ru-vid.comUgkxGZedDTcDfgD7fG_uU4esfx_EgxzlY2_1 Plans was extremely useful to me as a guide.

I couldn't ask for a better new years gift than a new Carl Rodgers upload. Great work man 🥳🎉

That's one hell of a set of stairs brother! Great series!

As much as a treasure that staircase is, the real treasure is being able to work alongside your Dad. At sometimes he might have been a pain in the butt while working. But this memory that will never leave you . At 70+ and my Dad gone 40+ years, I'd give anything to work alongside him for another 5 minutes.

Absolute stunner of a staircase. Exquisite in every detail. You should be very proud of this.

A real masterpiece Carl. You and dad should be extremely proud of yourselves!

Emphasized: "The Everest of carpentry." Beautiful work and it's a pleasure to see the craft alive and its beauty exposed. Both you and your father did a very fine job!

An amazing job again...ty...also for beeing a Part of it👍

It’s a beautifully crafted stair and railing. It was a joy to watch your honesty and skill during the entire process.

One of the few channels where I click the like button before I even start watching

The joinery on the stairs and railings is a testament to your dedication to perfection on this project. I am impressed with the skills of you and your father. Job well done!

You are extremely professional in your work. You have created a piece of art

As a custom finish carpenter for nearly 30 years, I know the satisfaction of putting those spacers into the final spot while installing your spindles. Your attention to detail and craftsmanship has evolved so much since the beginning when you tore off the original roof. I greatly appreciate you sharing this journey with us and wish I could be there to help. Simply stellar work.

Blown away by the quality of craftsmanship by yourself and your dad.. An absolute joy to watch these videos and something i definitely look forward to 👏🏻👏🏻

Surely at this point, with the years of work you put into restoring this house, you can call yourself a Master Carpenter. Such impressive work

Incredible! Just a complete work of art, and so wonderfully satisfying to watch such precision! Well done

You must feel immense satisfaction every time you climb those stairs. It's been an absolute joy to watch this series, and I'm kind of sad it's come to an end. Many thanks to you and your Pa.

It's crazy that most people wouldn't even know where to begin, and if they did, they'd make a mess of it. This was one complex task! Thanks for taking the time to film the process... so much work all around, but worth it.

Carl, You are not a tradesman, you are an artisan. Your father must be the best of mentors.

The attention to detail is absolutely beyond compare.

What a great piece of engineering & woodwork! Bravo! You have made something that will last for centuries and both of you should feel very proud. Have a great year! I look forward to more!

It has been a joy, watching you and your father working together on this project and the others as well. Both showing the true craftsmanship of the builds you both have undertaken. It has been a joy watching true craftsman at work, as well taken pride in one's work and wanting to get it right as well in doing it right. Well done to you both.

"Perfection" is the only word that comes to my mind when I see this staircase. Superb job!

Amazing work and craftsmanship!!

I have to say the stair case looks absolutely beautiful. You should be so pleased and proud of all your hard work. Love this channel 😊

This is so beautiful, and hopefully it will take at least another 300 years to read the message. That you got to work with your dad on this is awesome too, I really miss working with my dad. Moments and an accomplishment to cherish for a lifetime.

1975 I built a two stage staircase for my bride in an A frame I had built with help from dear friends. The staircase was after our first baby came and I had to floor the upper of the A frame. Never built a staircase before. Used Cypress pine as the whole house was that as it resists termites regrettable that I didn’t have the aid of my original helpers because although it was true, plumb and tight.....the Cypress was still a little green and it shrank minimally. Almost broke my heart....but had a gorgeous bride and went on to have four babies filling the house with joy. Never lost a baby down those stairs!!

Beautiful work. Beautiful wood. The way those final spacers pop in with just a little help is perfection. *chefs kiss* Well done doesn't quite cut it.

The end result is absolutely stunning but man...Being french and knowing the price of wood these times, you did put a huge, HUGE amount of money on this project !

Subscribed. I’ve just binge watched over 2 hours of this project. I’d never even seen your channel before, but quickly became enthralled by your craftsmanship, level of detail and care you put into your work. Along with the quality of your editing/production etc which is fantastic. Your level of care and attention is an absolute joy. Can’t wait ro check out the rest of your channel!

I’m a furnituremaker myself, but making a staircase like this is one hell of a job. Great work, the details are incredible to see! Youre video’s are from a high level and i’m using some of your tips and tricks. Waiting for more! ✌🏻

I think working with all that beautiful oak must be exciting.

Growing up, my neighbor was a master carpenter - I could watch him work for hours and he even taught me a couple things! His skill and care were also reflected in his life. Thank you for demonstrating these qualities once again. May your life truly be as beautiful as your work.

I am ... almost sad it's done? It is absolutely beautiful. Really love the way you make videos, looking forward to the next one !

This has been a great series. Looking forward to what is next. Appreciate all that you have to do to get the work done and then edit down a video for all of us to watch. Happy New Year.

I don't normally comment on videos, but I have to say absolutely outstanding craftsmanship. Perfection. Thank you.

Stunning finish work! It'll easily last 300 more years!

discovered the true meaning of patience on this staircase. thanks for waiting 🙏 SECRET PROJECT: www.carlrogers.co/secret-project p.s. subscribe (400k is so close) p.p.s. ignore any messages from 'me' about Telegram 'prizes' - it's a big fat scam

Maybe you can fill the cracks on the post tops with glue a saw dust mixture?

Absolutely beautiful craftmanship.

You remind me of Rory Mcilroy. He's a magician with a 5 iron. You are just as skilled with your tools. Congratulations on another excellent build.

can already tell how crisp this is about to look 🔥😍

I'm in awe, stunned and flabbergasted by the amount of such precise and accurate work you put in this endeavor. It is indeed a masterpiece of carpentry and you have every reason (and your father too) to be proud of the result. Thank you for your videos. Et encore bravo !

Absolutely incredible craftsmanship.

Those stairs are CLEAN! congratulations

An awesome staircase, the precision in the measurements is outstanding.

It is so pleasant to watch a young master craftsman at work. Just one idea how about attaching a solar panel to roof so you can charge when stopped.

Now that’s a hell of a stair case brother. Well thought out and very well built. Amazing work….

I've loved watching your attention to detail, and enjoy seeing all your fabulous tools. Thanks so much and very best wishes to you all.

Stunningly beautiful

You and your dad have build a staircase "par excellance" - Hats off 👌

Wonderful to sit on my backside with a coffee and watch a craftsman at work. Here's to more coffee and watching yours (and your Dad's) handiwork.

Exquisite design and workmanship.

Absolutely stunning craftsmanship

A master at work just never gets old. The sign of a true pro is that even when there is an error or slight problem, the knowledge and experience to correct it without compromise is the proof. Great work Cole.

Complete admiration for the quality work. Thank you for sharing.

These are really nice and sturdy looking stairs. Sophisticated and diligent work is beautiful.

Beautiful work! I really appreciate your solution to fixing the top and bottom of the spindles. Yes, a little complex but clearly worth it if quality of this level is needed.

Every time you walk this stair, it is sure to uplift your spirit.

Waay more technical than I'd ever dare attempt... great job.

What a delicious journey!! Thank you for sharing your master works!
