How To Build a Large Outdoor Staircase | DIY Stairs Stringers Risers Railing

[@kidphillyorg]

Not just the building of these stairs, but also think of the time and thoughtfulness it takes to film, commentate, and edit this video. Explaining things in a simple way so others can be encouraged and learn how to do this on their own. Very well done no matter being a man or a woman. You're a talented builder and educator. Defined not by your gender, but by your gift. Thanks for sharing your gift with others!

[@jillpotter7890]

This! Thank you, you took the word right out of my fingers! Lol

[@57hound]

I like the way you called out the critics of your husband. You have proven yourself capable of meeting the challenges of your projects time after time, and like all of us, male or female, sometimes we need help, and sometimes we don't. My wife and myself are independent minded people who are quite willing to tackle projects alone when we don't need another's help, but we always know we are there for each other should the need arise. Kudos for your independence, can do attitude and gumption.

[@megan2478]

I think it's awesome your hubby doesn't try to jump in when you don't need the help...he respects your abilities, and knows you will do a good job, which is a big compliment.

[@SepherStar]

My friend/roommate was a guy. If something was broken, he would buy the replacement part, and then give it to me to fix! He once wanted me to replace the light bulb on the kitchen ceiling about 9 feet up. He gave me the bulb and I was like "Yeah, you're 6'2 and I'm 5'2 and we don't have a ladder so what do you want me to do about it?"

Home improvement is a lot more complicated than I thought. Just learning to paint properly and put my own floors in took a lot of learning. I luckily have tradesmen in my family that I can run things by when I get confused. With the internet you can do a lot of the learning on your own but it's so nice to be able to just text a question to someone who has actually done it properly many times.

[@lizarcher7143]

I love your comment about your husband’s support! I find doing hard work by myself is therapeutic and stress relieving. Plus, sometimes having someone else, especially your spouse, around just makes the work go slower. Too much conversation, potential disagreements, and he can be working on something else anyway. Support from your spouse doesn’t always mean they are right next to you. Sometimes it means they respect you enough to leave you alone to do your thing.

[@johnwingfield1460]

I just 'discovered' you through a YT recommendation about 4 months ago. Most of what I've viewed have been more recent projects from the past year which included very interesting but far more complex projects. This is the oldest of your videos I've seen so far and obviously when you were at a different house with a comparatively 'simpler' project. But you still showed a lot of thought and planning in your approach. I'm a total novice with carpentry and power tools but trying to learn. You've really opened my eyes to the importance of doing a bit of research and building smart from the beginning. Thank you, and please keep making your great videos.

[@AprilWilkerson]

Thanks! Yes, when starting, I went slow and built experience appropriate projects building on my experience, lessons learned from mistakes and my confidence. Now, I feel I can tackle any project. On my Channel, you can click on Videos and start at the beginning should you choose. Enjoy the build and thanks for watching.

[@nealwright5630]

Makes me want to go out and build something!! One thing I noticed on the treads... you want the grain of the wood turned so that it is curved up in the middle. That way they don't tend to hold water and then rot/warp. Those turned with the curve down in the middle will tend to cup over time as they hold water and warp.

It is my project and I find him condescending and takes over, making me want to throw a tarp over my whole house so he can’t see what I’m doing, because he doesn’t know what he’s doing and has messed up my work before causing me to redo the work properly which costs me more time and money.

[@robertrisk93]

Hi April. I am an ophtalmologist from Santo Domigo, the capital city of the Dominican Republic. I have also worked as a carpenter in the past. I saw you use both a hammer and power tools in this video "without any eye protection", and I must tell you you have to stop doing that. It is very dangerous, and I must say that you will eventually suffer an eye injury if you keep doing that. Since 1981, when I graduated from med school, I have seen about 2 dozens carpenters loose an eye for hammering without protective eyewear. Please wear glasses. Do not allow yourself to become a statistic. Best wishes.

[@Thinks-First]

I'm a physician as well and couldn't agree more. I also do a lot of carpentry and always wear eye, ear, head, respiratory, and sun protection. Even on a cloudy day UV rays are bombarding us. On at least 5 occasions I've had high velocity projectiles come right at my eyes only to safely bounce off my eyewear. None of it was while hammering which is when you most expect it. It was when I was pulling something or putting something down and something breaks off and goes flying due to leverage. Also, when you're sawing you should always wear a mask so as not to breathe in the particles. Treated wood has nasty chemicals in it you don't want residing in your alveoli on tiny particles of wood. People take home carpentry way too casually. Finally, wear a helmet or at least a bump cap when working. If it's just too hot then wear ear protection where the padding on top is wide and thick. This has acted as a helmet for me many times.

As a former deck builder, this wouldn't pass code. She mentions the intermediate posts in the end, but doesn't actually show it later finished. As a "how to" content creator, you have to be careful with building something that technically wouldn't pass and then blast it out to how many people? Anyways, 4x4 posts could have run all the way through to the ground to act as intermediate posts (as previously said somewhere in the comments). Also, I am assuming that the pad she had affixed her posts to is not poured to the right depth (usually needs 36 inches by 8-12 inch diameter under is needed-- not the 4-6 inches most pads tend to be). I'd like to know the spacing on the joists too as that needs to be a certain spacing. Long story short. There are gaps here. However, I did learn some other techniques.

Just an FYI for next time. You should place the stair tread boards bark up, so if the board cups and bows, it should bow up letting rain water shed off. Like the step at 8:18 should go the other way. Was always told that by my Dad. Keep up the good work.

Wow we are so much alike 😂 I usually do projects, and ask my husband when I feel I need it. I enjoy doing projects on my own!!

[@dzaryfbahari1456]

Woww, ur really inspired me how the way you do the work.. 😘😘

[@robertkerby2581]

An Absolutely Amazing Set of Stairs! Well done, April!

[@AprilWilkerson]

Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching.

[@RefinerSimilitude]

The house will fall down before those steps do, lol. Nice work.

[@JasonSpitzMI50]

There is nothing better than having a strong woman in your corner and better yet having one that can build a staircase without your help. 💖💕💞

5:30 Did u close off your ears when she said she have to call on her engineer husband.

[@123786123786123]

1:38 Yeah right

[@shafqatsalahuddin]

Nice accurate job keep it up ...start your own wood construction business you will be sucessful

[@benjaminscarpentry2995]

Great work! I love your honesty. You don’t get that in KZbin videos at all. People make it look like it was done really quick and easy but it never is. Can’t wait for the next video.

[@RageMinecraft1]

is nice to hear you defending your husband and clarifying stuff like this, many internet keyboard warriors lack logic. many womans like to do this stuff, ive seen some that when you try to help them they are like LET ME DO IT MYSELF lol if they want help they will ask for it...

Nice, code in Michigan requires the posts to be notched where your headers connect to the joists . That way the weight is transferred directly through the post rather than creating a joint fighting sheer stress. As always nice, however, did you pull any permits for this or your other large home projects?

[@garrisonaw]

jconradh News to me, and I've lived in Michigan my whole life.

[@toddoliver3385]

jconradh Building code in Ontario would require 4x6 with the header notched in. She did do a great job :)

[@jconradh]

I do as well, I'm always impressed. I learned as I went, but I had to buy copies of the Nat. Electric Code, Plumber's codes, as well. And some of the things I learned were from the nice inspectors who told me what I needed to do to pass inspection. 8^)

Screw all these REGULATIONS - lets #MAGA!!!

[@jaylast1958]

I was upset about the guard rail codes for stairs (>4" gaps), so I made the 'spindles' from barbed wire lol.

[@zeevaldkv]

wow! great woman!

[@francoiseosquiero2314]

Que bonito!

[@dickfitzwell200]

the spindle jig is brilliant!

[@MAPINTERIORREALTYPVTLTDCOM]

Very nice job mam

[@jt9967]

You should've let the 4x4 be used for railing instead of cutting them ,my opinion looks good though👍🏼

[@Dieselhorses]

Was fixing to mention what you did, would have saved some time and lock everything together better BUT still came out awesome!

[@warthunder7123]

That is smart!!! Where is my wife, we will start with something simple! inflatable pool.

[@laeeqallie]
