I've been slowly working on the staircase over the course of the last year, collecting the right pieces of the wood, waiting for the wood to dry, the inspiration to come. To make it less steep I decided to build an L shaped staircase with a glass covered platform in the middle to showcase a beautiful root I found in the forest from a tree torn out by the wind storm. I've been climbing the ladder thousands of times while building the log cabin and the fall I've had was a sign to hurry up with the stairs. The video was long so I decided to split it into two parts, this is the first part of the staircase build.
Thank you for watching!

What would otherwise be left to rot, burnt in a brush pile or cut up for firewood, showcases the beauty of a rarely utilized piece of the tree. It's the perfect use of the tree's root. Beauty and symmetry found within the roots of trees intrigue me, the wood itself does as well. Whether it's alive or dead, I feel a strong connection with it. This may well sound ridiculous to some people (but really, I don't much care), it's as though the wood itself calls out and/or speaks to me. Regardless of my rantings, you have done a magnificent job. Be proud of yourself young man. Be very proud !

My father would have been so impressed with your workmanship! You are a craftsman with wood just as he was 🥰 That stair system is going to look gorgeous! Your whole build is a work of art! Thank you for taking all of us along on your family’s building adventure. Sending huge admiration for your craftsmanship and love to you and your family from the Pocono Mountains, Pennsylvania USA ❤️🥰

I have also been fascinated by the other vids about the other aspects of your life. I am sometimes moved to tears when I watch you and your family together on the project. I can feel the love that you obviously have for your beautiful wife, you have a lovely family, especially the little girl who is so sweet, she is almost a double for my own grand-daughter who is also 6. Please don't stop making the video's because I can't wait to see the house now come to life as you move towards the day when you all start to live in it. It's a pity there aren't more people like you in this world my friend, God bless and keep you all safe.

We were lucky as you were and only suffered some scrapes and bruises. Your work is amazing and very beautiful. I love to see that your family is there to help. My wife and I do everything together and I think it is special to see you two work together. I wish you good luck and good health. Can hardly wait for the next video. Take care sir.

I'm retired now, but after most of a lifetime spent as a carpenter, one of my biggest fears of getting hurt on the job next to cutting myself with a power tool, was having a ladder slip out from under me like that. It's a very easy thing to happen especially when the ladder is on a hard smooth surface, but I'm glad to see you were not hurt worse than you were.

It’s incredible what you have come up with again with that stairs in terms of designing and making it.

I owned and added onto an 1815 log cabin. It was found like many log cabins, hidden inside the walls of a much larger house. We found it in Michigan and it was moved to northern Ohio. The logs were marked for their location and it was literally put together like a Lincoln Log kit. My favorite part of the build was my biggest contribution. I built a one and a half story farm fieldstone wall with a very traditional cooking fireplace. It was outfitted with forged tools and swing arms. My then 8 year old daughter could almost stand up in it and could grow a few feet taller and still be able to lay down in it. I collected the stones with the permission of a few nearby farmers. My second favorite part of that build was the 3-5 ft rectangle slate pieces found in the basement of a fallen down house from the late 1700s. We block and tackle the heck out of the stones to get them from point A to point B. The layout took the longest time. It was like putting together a puzzle for a giant. I am not the strongest woman these days but back then I had an alter ego, Svetlana. She could do anything!

WOW Nik. Glad you are OK, your pride may be a little hurt because you didn't remember to slide the ladder back to where it was but at least you didn't get hurt seriously. Your idea of putting a stump in as the landing is awesome. The cabin is a work of art all by its self but the masterpiece's you are incorporating into your design are incredible. Can't hardly wait for your next video to see your other ideas come to being. Stay safe, be careful, take it easy and keep warm and dry.

I admire your work, and the (glass-covered platform in the middle to showcase a beautiful root) is amazing. I hope whenever you were free in the following years, place good support under the house to fix the tree root from below, and secure it safely. Then remove all those thick vertical tree trunks from the table, they covered the tree root and its beauty!!! You did such a great job, then let it show and shine!

Nik is to repurposed tree trunks as Mr. Miagi was to Bonsai. Each saw the true potential and helped them become something extraordinary. Great job Nik.

The organic shape looks great with all the linearity going on in the rest of the cabin. Having the landing is going to be a plus when it comes taking your furnishings upstairs. Great job, Nik and pretty lady!

A great idea, with a very nice result. when you finish the staircase, and finish the central table, with the other beautiful root, you will have a spectacular set, on the floor of the living room. I'm glad the fall from the stairs was just a scare. Congratulations and go ahead, there is a little less to finish.

When I watched the ladder slide out from underneath you, it was instant pain in feb 2018 I had the same thing happen except I shattered my knee and the hospital had to replace the whole knee. So it was instant pain for me than God you are ok 😰 the whole time you were working on the second floor and roof that’s what I was fearful of. Stay safe Nic, fantastic work also your channel is one of my top 5 thank you

one man {basically) working , as a group would do [with some help] and you let people see what a person is capable of doing , amazing ! You deserve everything you worked for , as in like you took a fall , you must have had a flashback of all you did in the beginning to where you were , We all have things that can go wrong and you did a life story for all of us , thanks and good luck with your new home . You have a nice family as we can see and my son is in the process of having a new home . I will be so happy for him upon completion.
