@@KatieCottingham omg I used to do exactly that kind of work! Some people bring in the craziest stuff. Fortunately I've only ever had two things fall, neither of them hit anybody and neither of them were my fault. It's easy how one small misunderstanding of physics can turn into a huge hazard or even an accident. Let me tell you, stringing lights between two poles exerts a *LOT* more force on those poles than you would expect. It always stressed me out putting up somebody's work that wasn't triple checked by other certified people. What didn't stress me out is the career professionals that would come in and hang 300 tons of steel above your head because they actually have the people to do all of the proper safety design checks.

[@borntodoit8744]

The engineers are doing what they normally do. Try to work out how it works (or not as the case may be) not the fact IT WORKS... This is a million dollar idea. Imagine if u could temporarily screw this to an outside wall for taking stuff up stairs while the house was being built? Then decom it when u leave site. Make it out of steel so it's robust and strong. Maybe add an inside support leg just like outside so it's basically one big origami stairwell...lean too then unfold!

I thought exactly the same. But meanwhile I'm not sure if that is such a good idea. As you surely know: In tiny houses you'll often find stairs that are used as cupboards as well. I think this is more practically because multifunction is the name of the game in tiny houses. The stair in this short video is quite cool but it's only a stair. So I wouldn't use it in a tiny house although I thought of that in the first moment.

[@RedBairnMedia]

@Paul Taylor Without seeing the rest of the shop perhaps. If we consider a scenario with the opposite wall being completely decked out in machinery and like, this moveable stair case may provide just enough space to reverse a vehicle with loaded trailer into the shop to unload behind that space which may have been inaccessible otherwise. Seeing his previous workshop, there was a big emphasis on things being mobile, wheeled out, used in different locations. So I suppose this would enable more manoeuvrability for huge assembly tables or outfeeds. Lots of different possibilities, but I wouldn't say pointless until we see the rest of the shop.

The hinge leaf is loaded in shear (the hinge pin is in bending), flat bar (i.e. hinge leafs) is very strong in shear, the only things you would worry about are the screws connecting the hinges and outermost wooden support since that could split and break over time.

Those stairs are bouncing a lot when you run up the stairs. I don’t know chief, looks pretty unsafe.

Nah those look fine. At my friends cabin they have stairs that bounce like that and they are completely fine

Fantastic concept for business if you were to focus on the foldable stairs as a product which can be installed in small warehouses, workshops etc, some fine tuning on the idea as whole but regardless, always ignore negative criticism and keep up the creativity. If you built this for the sake of convenience for yourself than you're a smart chap.

[@rhondaborders3452]

It's genius! You could market that in all the tiny homes!

[@s1ump659]

Yep I agree

[@vladthe_cat]

Well done, the creativity here is off the charts, though you are putting a lot of trust in those hinges; the stairs are quite wobbly when they are folding/unfolding and that wobbling will pull on the screws holding in the hinges, and i think you know where it goes from there. I'm sure it would take hundreds of folds/unfolds before it needs any sort of maintenance, but I think it should have some reinforcement. Besides, the benefits of reinforcing it are quite good too!

[@xxlordbelxx1368]

Either way he's fastened into the end grain of the boards... Even screws will pull out or rip sideways in time.. lag bolts might hold it for a year or two of use, but still it's fundimentally flawed and there's a good reason stringers go UNDER the treads...

[@thomasbonse]

Also adding a hand rail would've been a good idea, and could've still been implemented while keeping the fold-flat operation.

[@stevena3333]

I was surprised not many other people mentioned this. It’s already wobbly and scary with just the hinges, not having anything to grab onto is even scarier lol.

[@alainmortreux1896]

Une invention géniale ! Félicitations !

I wonder if the hinges are capable of taking the perpendicular load under tension. They're normally designed for shear loading

[@abelis644]

It's a terrific idea and concept. There are a few flaws though. The steps shouldn't be held by hinges on the right side, they should rest of the board itself, that would be far stronger and safer. Also he needs a rail for further safety. Finally, the whole contraption should be better anchored to the wall. Cheers! Isabelle in Canada.😊

That works perfect, and could do with assistance gas struts to aid lowering and lifting. Plus a lock off at the top so it can’t be pushed back up when someone is up there, but can be de-locked before coming down.

OSHA can suck it. I hate that entity. These are the people that love redundancy and overkill. These are the people that force you to put in an elevator at your business so that the one (legitimate) handicapped (not another black woman with self inflicted diabetes)person that has visited 35 years has a way to get up there. The cost of inputting it then certifying it yearly. Routine maintenance. You just spent $500,000 for that one person. No SMART business person would make this happen on their own free will
