man i've worked in construction, and some of the wild shit you see hold houses and decks together after you demo it is crazy.

Been watching you a long time! From someone who never used a power tool, to owning your own business, you've come a long way!

You did fantastic work, April! Thank you for sharing the Fence Armor lineup, glad we could help with this build.

I agree with a miter saw station! I do the same thing for every job! From decks to siding to trim inside. Great job and good work!

Ah my lovely wife and I went through that wonderful post setting process for our shed as well. Good job you two working together without poking each other in the eye!

Nice work i do this daily on metal but had no idea on how to make it on wood …thanks a lot!!!

@pokeimm 3 года назад

That's very beautiful. An extra idea , you can close the sides of first 10 steps of below the staircase with adding a door become a garden tool storage. Nice job

@funkybob4265 3 года назад

I love the place where you live. Texas seems to be very peaceful and nice to live. I live in France and we don't have this weather and this proximity to nature. By the way, very good job for the stairs. It will be far more robust than the old one, will last much longer and the look is definitely nicer.

@ericcrosco6271 Год назад

Nice job!!!

@HGR693 3 года назад

Super work !. enjoy all of your videos ! I probably would have put your 4x4s on conic concrete stanchions, to insure that you will have no rot issues.

@plexusdan 3 года назад

Nice use of tools. Would suggest for Northeast climates to use deck tape for under tread wood on wood to prevent underside rot and get longer life. In TX likely not an issue. You make great projects and tutorials.

@ifiwooddesigns 3 года назад

Thanks for the Stain and Seal endorsement. I’ve been using One-Time stain and sealer and it’s costly ($85 a gallon) and takes days to dry due to having to be UV treated in the sun. Couldn’t find drying times for this product, so I may contact company. Like the fact it’s low in VOC so I can apply in basement and ready to use when dry. Living in NY is getting cold now and shorter days cause longer curing time. Thanks again for another well explained and interesting project. 😉

That palm nailer though! Very neat! Thank you for this video. Makes the task of taking on a staircase build less daunting after watching your videos. I'll be prepared and, well, with a little luck, my math will work out on the first try. 😂 Awesome video April!

April you build alot cool stuff. Iv got questions from you. Could do some tool review,on one you like that most? Thanks keep awesome worn up.

@BearCreekWoodworking 3 года назад

April, you and your crew did an awesome job building your new stairs. Your new stairs are "Rock Solid" (built on rock) which I'm sure will last the test of time very well. I would say at least 50+ years, since you used all treated materials, did your research, and built it very strong (Strong Ties). See what I did there...lol. ;)

@troybush5899 11 месяцев назад

@ 12:14 ....thanks for mentioning your lack of code-compliant handrail....BUT, you can STILL INSTALL one that is GRIPPABLE...definitely a vital (sometimes literally) component to a proper staircase. You all did a great job on this project, though. Thanks for walking us through and sharing the details.

@aserta 3 года назад

Hidden under the "skirt" of the stairs, i'd add on the span that's connected to the house, two lengths of wire to keep it tensioned and pulled into the house. Just as a long term precaution, to keep things from moving, which they do, and to relieve any kind of stress on the actual structure, where the break/switch is.

@charleyl264 3 года назад

Very nice.

Did I see Mama staining in the background? Great job, once again. Take Care and God Bless

@jeffj2495 3 года назад

Nice rebuild on the stairs. I am glad to see you using American wood products. Lots of people are using IPE and other non-sustainable rainforest wood. Yeah, Ipe - most of it is 100+ years old and being installed in locations where it only lasts 20 years at most.

@TheMaxwellee 3 года назад

like a duck to water. Incredible April.

@Recovering_Californian 3 года назад

Yikes! That old staircase was super dangerous. Glad no one was ever hurt.

@busybeckbby 3 года назад

Great video and result! I'm very interested in that post saver wrap. I checked out the link and was amazed at how inexpensive they were. It appears in the video that you did not cover it all the way don to the end of the post. I remember you said it would be about 2" above ground but wondering why it wasn't double wrapped or something to ensure full coverage below ground. Hope I'm not missing anything here, thanks for posting.

@backwoodsdixiefarm1098 Год назад

Instead of Jacob latter it's Jacob stairs and thank you for showing tutorial on stairs because it helps please keep making more of these awesome videos

@AprilWilkerson Год назад

Thanks for watching. Glad you enjoyed it.

@podcaster_emeritus 3 года назад

I always look forward to your videos to see what cool thing you’ve worked on. I’m amazed those old stairs were still standing. That looked dangerous. I thought I heard you say the upper balcony was in equally bad shape. So I guess I’m curious from a build standpoint why you would repair the stairs first. If you are going to have to tear down the upper balcony won’t that mean your brand new staircase will need to be reattached to a new upper deck? Also curious on choice of treated wood versus something like Trex for the treads as in your treehouse patio project. Given the Texas heat I would think maybe the trex would be more durable and lower maintenance. Just curious. Always trying to learn. Keep up the great work and these videos.

@jackostergaard4624 3 года назад

Re your comment about code and your choice to ignore. As you said check the code. You will find that the handrails should extend one tread width +12" beyond the bottom of the stair. They don't end at the newel post. Landings have guardrails not handrails and guard rails should be 42" tall. The grip type hand rail can be added on brackets below the top of the handrail. This next one gets a little technical and requires visualization. The first tread at the top of each run should be level to the landing. This allows the stringer to have full purchase to the header. Simpson has solved the problem with the connector that you used but if this was being built in steel the shop detailer would change the design to allow for a full welded connection. And let you know all about it! FYI Simpson makes a connector for this design also LSCZ. Their install drawings show the correct detail And I also like the idea of the post anchors. I don't like putting wood in concrete. The concrete acts as a cup that holds water accelerating the rot process. Packing the hole with dry sand works really well as the dry sand expands when it gets damp securing the post. (this from Norm on TOH)
