Cool design and nice execution. The handrail looks pretty flimsy, though. I think I’d put it on the other side where it can be attached more firmly. Thanks for making the plans free! I really enjoy your channel!

I'm sorry if I missed it but what kinda /where do you get that hinges from? Never seen it and it's the most interesting thing I've seen in a long time

[@saltwaterpurl]

In the video they are called a “t-hinge” but I can’t find them

[@saltwaterpurl]

These are “wrap” or “wraparound” hinges. When both sides wrap it is a “double” or “back to back” “wrap or “wraparound” hinge. There are different kinds, and not all will work.

[@herofany6073]

cool ! but remember that stairs only work for him and me, super light asian ! lol, if your weight above 70kg, i think you'll need more strong connection than depends only hinges and screw, but his works realy cool🔥

Excellent video and great design. Thanks for taking the time to present this so professionally and to share your ideas with an audience. I feel that some of your subscribers may be missing the point with some of your creations. Many are just show casing design ideas and creativity. We can choose to steal your ideas and creativity to fit our own personal needs. The design and creativity doesn't need to stop with your version of a creation. Given that initial vision, your vision, we are allowed to tweak and improve as we see fit. As for a practical use for these stairs.... I have a very small downstairs closet in one of my bedrooms. In the ceiling of that closet space is an attic access opening. I don't need to go up there very often, just every 3 months to change a furnace filter. I don't need stairs hogging up needed storage space 24x7. I also don't like carrying up a heavy step ladder every time I need to get up there. For the few times I need access, clear a space for the ladder to unfold into and use the permanent folding ladder. Great solution for my specific use. Wonderful.

[@dekayscrafts]

I bought it at a tool market near my shop. Amazon, eBay, Google, no matter how much I looked, I couldn't find a similar hinge. It probably doesn't seem to sell online. How about showing a picture and buying it at a tool market near you?

[@ДиМакси-х9с]

За понятный конструктив лайк!!! А вот про петли надо подумать - автор видео весит кг 70, а я 110. Уж очень страшно ходить, зная что держат меня только петли, причем и слева, и справа. Левую часть достаточно легко усилить, нарастив несущую балку еще на пару листов фанеры и закрепив ступеньки по центру балки на обычные рояльные петли. Тогда при сгибании, ступень будет лежать на несущей опоре. Что делать с правой стороной? Неделю думаю, просматриваю аналогичные видео (а их мало), пришел к выводу - правую сторону надо усиливать металлоконструкциями. Желательно и ступени усилить каркасом из профиля

Hola, donde puedo comprar T- hinge? La puedo realizar una escalera de 2.5 metros de larga, aplicando tú técnica? Buen trabajo Gracias

[@mitchd949]

The hinge screws going into side or end-grain of the plywood are weak.

[@mahtoosacks]

Same thing i was thinking. All those little screws are side loaded with a person's weight. This looks like disaster after the first time you run down them

[@jangoturner162]

Guess it depends on how much you weigh.

[@rmy3mane]

if you look closely, the screws are going into both along and perpendicular to the grain. The question is where to get this kind of hinge as this is the first time I've seen such a hinge.

[@klauspaul4191]

I like every video you do but sorry the design on this does not cut it all the weight is on the screws.this should not be copied or replicated without reworking it so the weight rest on the stringer.

Link to plans??? The intro to the video said the link to the plans are in the video description, but it's not there.

[@Traitorman..Proverbs26.11]

Doesn’t matter. The design is flawed because the weight is on the screws. The “bumping” that takes place when people go up and down (especially down) will eventually have one or more of the steps fail.

[@Johan_Hartgeld]

Smart idea. The only question I have is what's he doing with the space he saved by making the stairs foldable?

[@embwee]

exactly --whatever would have to moved out of the way would outweigh the convenience of the folding stairs, and I love stuff that folds!

[@peternicholsonu6090]

Krys Wee He is showing people like you and I HOW to do it. He deserves credit for thinking of it .You and I didn’t think of it.

@@peternicholsonu6090 you're absolutely right. Please don't put me on your naughty list St. Nicholsonu!

[@hectorperes7025]

The hinges should be bolted on for safety, over time and frequent usage, those stairs will eventually collapse

[@johnmca5643]

I agree.....

[@akbychoice]

Door hinges move many times with more weight and do just fine. They aren’t bolted. Usually only 2 or 3 hinges.

Interesting design, well made, but I don’t understand why this loft needs a folding stair. Doesn’t look like a very trafficked corner of the room. Feels a little design for design’s sake. This is creating a problem to solve it, not problem solving. But again, nice design. Inalso don’t understand why you have to glue boards together. Can’t you buy the proper materials?
