Custom Spiral Staircases by Zane Smith

[@secondskill]

Its nice to see someone put a video on here about installing stairs who actually knows what they're doing. Well done sir

[@Manuel_Z_Kayaks]

Good to see someone just doing beautiful work and not trying to brag with no knowlege of what they are talking about. 90% of the "HOW TO" vids are someone doing it for the first time and using someone elses info to do it. GREAT JOB SIR, YOU ARE A TRUE CRAFTSMAN!

[@anonymouscitizen2732]

I owned FREE STANDING STAIR in Temecula California but closed in 2008. I have built around 100 stairs similar to this one. Nice work my friend! Reminds me when I built a staircase in my backyard once. Built most of my stairs in shop or on job site. Too much labor and time in between jobs. The money was good. I used to build a stair like this one in about 7 days. Then I started slowing down to enjoy the process a bit more would take about 12 days on average.

6 weeks to build a stair at the quality

[@joeybela4581]

Years later and still in awe, good stuff man

[@signaturestairs3522]

That's a well planned installation of staircase. The finished product truly justified the effort and hard work. Great job

[@dlwatib]

Nicely done. Unlike another commenter, I like the metal spindles. It keeps the staircase looking light and interesting while providing the spacing that meets safety requirements.

[@perpetualjon]

Jaw? Meet floor!! Simply beautiful work!!

[@stairking8015]

Excellent work. Brilliantly designed staircases and railings.

[@Khether0001]

If it's not your house, I wonder if the people who'll use it will appreciate the insane effort you made there... I do. congratulations!

[@RoyCullen]

thank you for taking the time to make this video and share the method! beautiful staircase.

[@Mahartinba]

I am stunned. Beautiful Job

[@StepSim51]

Fantastic work Zane, bet you loved every minute of the build...

[@mattn9886]

Thanks for sharing how you built it. I learned allot, esp ripping the bending ply on an angle. Would have never thought of that. Incredible job!

[@bobbyadamo152]

Best method I've seen yet

[@Adsjabo]

Amazing, I spent some time working on large house in Whistler BC this year which had a curved staircase being built on site just like this, although on a much larger radius. Rather then framing the treads they had routed housings for them to slot into. I finished up the ski season and headed home before it had been finished though unfortunately.

[@spanner999]

That's the way treads should be fixed in via dovetail housings,

[@Adsjabo]

Zane: Awesome work! Thanks for taking some of the mystery out of wood spiral stairs. Beautiful work!

looks great wish I could do that

[@warretw]

Wow, looks great!

[@scout75jeans48]

great info and reinforce my knowledge of stair design.

[@davedrolett6890]

Next to building wooden clipper ships. I would say building wooden spiral staircases is the peak of the carpenter trade. More so now when everything is made of steel and concrete. As a retired union carpenter from 1962-99 that worked out of Mass. Great to see there is some true tradesman still around today. Bravo!

[@robertatwood2503]

dave Drolett cheers to that

[@manolocgarcia7470]

Una maravilla !!! Preciosa !!

[@Gethin_Duggan]

I've made regular stairs and formed concrete ones too but nothing as sexy as that!

[@tylerdurden8917]

Amazing, the cost must be huge!

[@danisfineww]

Great job

[@RainbowReigns]

That's art!

[@simonsimon405]

Oh very impressive work and video. I have few questions about it 1-why don't you use shim for finish on the outer beam. what is the use of this shim? 2-do you use the forms to make the handrail or use an other way to do it? excellent job and I love tour jig for the tread surface

[@21blackwood]

Well done Sir.

[@HiNrgChannel]

amazing!!! good job !!!

AWESOME!

[@aboodalbably7127]

very good job i like this>>>>>>>>

[@4chizl]

Very nice work. Is the pitch determined based on the floor heights, allowable headroom and tread depth requirements? How do you calculate the length of a helical radius? Fabric tape on staging walls doesn't seem accurate. I'll bet there is pi involved. Hopefully lemon meringue ;^)

[@attiladanci9830]

great job ...

that is amazing work, must have taken a few months.

[@ibanezjorge771]

you are the man

[@prawlingbadger2642]

Hey, I actually build spiral stairs for a living, my father is the real expert. We build them on the job site now instead of a shop. Not that many people do this work. We did 2 with landing etc.. Cheers, to see there are more stairmasters ^.^

[@scottwright388]

Although I don't do it anymore, I consider myself a stairmaster. It looks complicated to most, but quite simple to those of us that are experienced.

[@prawlingbadger2642]

@scott wright yes I'm actually doing those exact stairs, and that's the annoying part, we usually use a finish im the interior for them to paint, otherwise the finish detail after Installing the threads is a bitch to anyone....

[@scottwright388]

@@prawlingbadger2642 stairs get a lot of abuse in new construction, since they do install them for all trades to have access. The good higher end builders will install temp stairs.

[@prawlingbadger2642]

@scott wright Did you know that if you build them "on" or at the jobsite you don't even need a license? This is in CA

[@scottwright388]

@@prawlingbadger2642 I didn't, but I imagine you have to meet code requirements...I'm all the way on the other coast.
