How to Make a Ladder

[@soupesoupe]

super simple to follow as a total beginner. no nonsense and straight to the point with no flashy camera tricks and no storytelling. love it.

[@JaredMize9]

That end sequence was awesome. Very "game show winner"

[@shoutyman9922]

Just a general tip that I find useful. I am in my 70's and let's face it, not the tallest guy in the world and my reach is not that long. So if I am buying heavy sheet goods, (Melamine: anything over 1/2 inch) and making shelving etc., I get them to make initial cuts at the yard. It makes them easier to carry and they usually throw in a free cut. Hope this helps somebody.

[@iTeerRex]

Mr Pask, you make good use of jigs, something I don't do enough. Your videos are a good reminder to take the time and build them.

[@tharemyhopkins5873]

Additive joinery like you did is a technique I often forget or neglect. Thanks for the reminder - it's a great method and great looking ladder!

[@PaskMakes]

No worries Tharemy! :)

[@ronkellis769]

Exactly what I need!!! Bought a house where the mini-split is 10'' up over a "shelf" actually a bump out wall. Not the best thought out for getting to the filter! Have been contemplating just this exact ladder, but couldn't bring myself to pay for and have to adapt a commercial library ladder. Thank you! And as others have noted, a truly great no nonsense approach to filming & editing. So refreshing! P.S if you stumble across a same model table saw you can join the two tables, gain a bigger table, and keep a dado stack in the outside one. If it's worth the effort 🙂

[@toms4123]

Your channel is truly right at the top of this genre with few equals. Came back to watch it again after watching it when published.

[@ronkellis769]

Thanks!

[@ahumanother]

I think we can all agree that a Pask Makes Treehouse pt.1 will bring tears of joy into our eyes.

[@petec6690]

@7:33 you say hopefully it's useful to somebody. Well, I'm glad to announce yes, it is going to be highly useful to me. I'm saving this video to my collection of video files. Thank you for showing a clear and easy way to make such a ladder. Hopefully the one I'm going to be contracted to build isn't going to need to be more than 8 feet long. I'll know in a few days.

[@kadaverf]

Best. Outro. Ever!

[@andrew5792]

Hi Niel another excellent build. This also made me smile as for my first year in high school (Qld) I made a three tier step ladder in wood work. I'm now 49 and my mother (80) still uses it. Actually she has three, myself and two brothers, but obviously mines the best built one 👍

[@PaskMakes]

Thanks very much Andrew! The three tier step ladder stands the test of time and obviously yours was the best! ;)

[@kenc2257]

Nice ladder! In California, the plasterers [guys who do stucco coating/work] frequently make their own wooden ladders. They do this so they can have shorter (less distance between) the steps. They frequently carry heavy loads up/down ladders (stucco, planking for scaffolding, etc.) and the shorter distance between treads makes this easier on the legs/knees.

[@ChrisRasch]

Nicely done! Thank you for posting this. I'm looking forward to making a ladder like this for my Mom.

[@dj1NM3]

Very clever, particualrly creating the rebates for the steps by laminating the plywood between them.

[@tigertrophy1805]

Nice shop the push stick on the table saw really saves the fingers.

[@domster12292]

I love the ending with moving storage containers! Love ur videos too Pask! Thanks for sharing ur ideas and creativity!

[@alexanderkaestner5936]

Although it is not your regular channel content, so is the video very inspirit and useful . Thank you so much!

[@fatlacesthedon]

2 vids in one day, you're too good to us you know that? Lol

[@PaskMakes]

No worries! :)

[@jonno2000]

@@PaskMakes Yep - its called stepping up the production rate :-))

[@drewfife5169]

Thank you, sir. Takes the dado problem completely out of the equation.

[@rodmills4071]

Nothing flash but solid as a rock .should last for years .nice one.

[@cheffrin3751]

This is so awesome! Love the box art at the end! Great vid as usual!

[@Jackattak0ne]

Terrific to watch. Wish I had a fraction of your tools...and talent. Alas, I have what I need to build my own ladder to access my garage storage up high. Thank you much!

[@WelshRabbit]

The Putnam Rolling Ladder Company would be jealous of your product. Well done!!!

[@johnsrabe]

Safe and simple! Loved the dog and the animation.

[@RANDALLOLOGY]

That is a sturdy ladder from the way you built it. I like the old school bolts within each rung

[@invictu4488]

This man's brilliance is at another level... 2 thumbs up! 👍🏿👍🏿

[@vstarcruiser7141]

A fine job sir! U r an engineer , well planned, well demonstrated, well built! Ppl wind up in wheel chairs from ladders it does matter.

[@centorossi46]

Really nice work, you do things so simple, very functional and also good looking. That clip at the end was also really great. Keep it up!

[@SecondSonWoodworks]

You make it look easy and inspiring! Thanks for sharing!

[@jimgardner5129]

Damn! This is one of the most interesting videos I've seen on KZbin. Entertaining and informative. Nice job, mate.

[@Hellyers]

Superb animation at the end to finish it off... Great job all round!

[@rosscoesmiff]

Brilliant idea for the rollers by using bearings. I think I can incorporate this idea into heaps of things. Thanks for this, Mate

[@willd2609]

Gosh how did I miss this, one of my favourite builds and vids so far!

[@PaskMakes]

Glad you enjoyed it Will! :)

[@asktheraccoon]

Pask : I made shelves and a ladder Huge ass snake from a couple videos ago : ah yes, bunk beds.

[@S8tan7]

Addi S. Koon Pask will have to start charging him rent

[@KLIDIMARIA]

Very nice and sturby.You can put also small wheels in the bottom side of the stair,so you can move L/R without to step on the ground.

[@PaskMakes]

Thanks! I was always going to add retractable castors to the legs but when I fitted the ladder I found they weren't needed! :)

[@alansmith4734]

Nicely done! If that ladder was for me, I'd ask to add a handrail on the sides. It would extend out the side for easy hand gripping and also act as a bumper to protect from contacting the bolts that are securing the steps. Safety third!

[@ericgordon342]

Pask, ive got a couple tips for using the jeweler's saw, use contact cement to stick 2 pieces of sand paper together and then cut them into strips, you can then put them in the saw and use it like the blade to sand the inside of a piece easier.

[@ericgordon342]

Also, if you buy twisted blades that cut in 360 degrees it will make life way easier

[@sonnyloudon]

I was literally thinking just the other day about how I need to build a ladder!! This video is precisely what I need!!!

[@PaskMakes]

Glad it was helpful! :)

[@saschathiede]

Even when you just make a ladder you stil suprise me with the quality! Great videos!

[@marcusretaken72]

Thanks for sharing the ladder construction. I'm definitely going to build one for accessing soon-to-be-built overhead storage in my garage.

[@PaskMakes]

No worries Marcus - glad it was helpful! :)

[@henryworkswoodandmetal]

Thats one great simple, useful and sturdy looking ladder👍👍👍

[@jayoliver3734]

Straightforward and worthwhile content.

[@Korgon2013]

Very cool, and the box bit at the end was cute.

[@Painless61]

Nice Ladder ... diffrent but very nice ... Good Job Pask 👍🏽

[@Ebikelover]

Everything you do is first class Mate, the videos, the editing, the content and the projects. Thank you for sharing all your talents.

[@LosoIAm]

Wow, quite an elaborate ladder! Other than the weight (compared to aluminium), it must be very strong. Very well made!!!

[@trevorlebert1929]

nice touch with the platform, ive never seen one with that in mind. killer video again pask

[@NRCarrillo]

I REALLY like it. Love your creative mind.

[@americanwoodworkingtrickss6543]

Great Job.Regards from US.

[@darrylbuckett5380]

Love your videos mate, they are so practicle, I declare you an honorary sandgroper.

[@aridiumdesign]

You are just truly amazing and inspiring, thank you from NZ

[@kariolar3158]

I love the sound effects!

[@Oldgoldminer]

I don't need a ladder. But when I saw a Pask Makes I had to watch. LOL

[@lerikhkl]

I love that you had to clarify that the 15 degree angle was off vertical :)

[@PaskMakes]

I've said and been corrected many times in other videos! :)

[@barkergardens]

Thank you for the stop frame.

[@ericgordon342]

You should add a locking mechanism so the ladder dosent move while you are up there, maybe a set of ball detents or something similar?

[@PaskMakes]

The ladder doesn't move, it's very secure with a solid footing at the feet. :)

[@iori1kyo959]

Very good mate... really enjoy seeing your work and believe me you are making master pieces... May GOD bless you... Thank you dear...

[@ianvicedomini2648]

Thoroughly enjoyed the video mate and a fantastic build. Great video bud

[@matthewjohnston1017]

Great work 👍 the only part I don’t like is that putting the ladder against the opposite wall is in front of the door, thus ladder will always be sticking out in middle of room, but doesn’t look like there is really an easy work around to avoid that. Maybe a metal thin ladder, that straight up and down? Granted would not be as useful going up and down.

[@born_again_torinos]

You never cease to amaze me.

[@JB-ir3is]

Super nice, you are just so good at your job.

[@riaz1555]

I always learn something new from you Pask!

[@samm1797]

Same!

[@inTruthbyGrace]

that was BOMB!

[@rchavez5056]

Great job on both videos.

[@wowa5153]

You can make runners with springs for the floor. It will run freely until you step on the latter. Your weight is going to push the latter safely to the floor

[@StanCrafted]

That's a proper ladder, mate! Loved the ending of the video...bet that took a bit of time to make, eh? Was totally worth it!

[@chillyspoon]

Bloody fantastic - solid construction and as always something utterly ingenious thrown into the mix!

[@bobolander]

NOICE! stop motion FTW and literal laughter. well done mate.

[@paulajones4037]

Wow, Those Look amazing. . .nice job! OK, Im next, I'll take one order for my garage.

[@MarkMcCluney]

Very enjoyable vid mate, love the Wallace and Grommit style music near the end! Thanks for sharing mate.

[@luisstanker1491]

Pask, what should i say ... Perfekt!!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🏆

[@zblprojects9753]

You know, I never even considered making a ladder but now I know how to. Excellent video.

[@joeyd4356]

Nice workshop! Very professional and the ladder worked 👌

[@carltonanderson5139]

Excellent video. You make it look so easy. Will be using some of your building techniques.

[@Cradley684]

Nice job Neil, look's like you have gone up in the world Mate, have a nice day !!!.

[@shanejohnson800]

All your videos are useful pask

[@thndrgrrrl]

You are so smart and talented!

[@ArcticFlies56]

Now that’s a ladder! Well done!! I think I would have made it one shelf higher. Standing on that platform would make me very uneasy. But I don’t like heights. Best regards.

[@franceshawe9572]

But to get plywood sheets longer.....

[@YS-by7wy]

Very clever design!

[@garethgriffiths8577]

This ladder builder is on another level. Love it!

[@husk79]

cool i need to make an outside ladder to get to the roof. i have an old one i made but its getting a bit soft... i think ill try your way... look very steady!! thanks!! cool vid

[@albertogiuffrida2864]

Just .... WOW .... good job! ... Hello from Italy!

[@Sludgepump]

Whoohoo! Excellent construction... Always learn something from you! Thanks! ;)

[@ThallesValle]

master piece.... i dont know how could i get here, but its amazing, very well done

[@The78bluedevils]

Solid idea & construction

[@FredMcIntyre]

Nicely done Neil! 😃👍🏻👊🏻

[@TheLovelyMissBeans]

This ladder design is brilliant! It may just solve my garage problem! 🤞

[@AfterBurner369]

Poetry in motion 👍

[@ChileExpatFamily]

Nice video on how too. I like it and will give it a try here in Chile. Jim

[@FabioRaitz]

Nice work, once more, as always.

[@aniltoncarlosneves6357]

Excelente execução de um projeto simples e funcional!!! Parabéns!!!

[@Crewsy]

The shelving and ladder turned out great. Have you thought about adding a handrail for safety sake since you will often climb the ladder with a large tote bin in hand?

[@toms641]

My first thought too.

[@IEnjoyCreatingVideos]

Great job on the ladder Neil! Thanks for sharing the video with us.👍👌😎JP

[@rwind656]

Cool way to construct a ladder! I want to see a winched platform as well, please!

[@thomasarussellsr]

Love the dancing totes at the end.

[@phooesnax]

Very nicely done!

[@williamhollaway2198]

I thoroughly enjoyed your video. Thanx. Awesome ladder.

[@gloaggabaoma1859]

Awesome! Nice idea hope to make one soon

[@eln74]

Wow, this is an awesome build, tnx for sharing it Mr. Pask....!!!
