This journey is now elevated to a another level thanks to your staircase. Will definitely make moving around a lot easier on the joints.

To aid with the use of the stairs, trim the treads to protrude the same amount from the stringers using a string line. You'd be surprised how easy it is to trip on the slightest difference. Good sturdy construction.

This is the strongest temporary staircase I have ever seen being made. It's great to see the progress of your work.

Strong? Thin chipboard as a stair step? The steps are the weakest part. Should have used left over beams for the steps and chipboard for the spacing.

I'm wincing a bit, because one of the first things I learned was not to use screws for sideways loading, as they snap. I appreciate this is temporary, just thought I'd pass the info on.

Great job. My only concern is the particle board treads. Particle board is not very strong and worried that one may crumble and cause a dangerous fall. Maybe add support down the center? Love the narration. 😊

I would strongly advise you also make a hand rail, it will be easy to misjudge your step and fall. That’s the last thing anyone of us would want to hear about.

Nothing is more durable than a provisional installation. So I am curious for how long you will use that staircase.

A wonderful use of old timber. Such a shame that it is only a temporary creation. Nevertheless, a 'step' in the loving restoration of your delightful house. Repetition is a thing about reclaiming features, kudos to Marion, and yourself, as the time spent is producing excellent results.

For a temporary staircase Lewis, I'm sure that'll do just fine. The one thing that worries me is the fact that you screwed the very top of the stair strings into timber that (in theory) could snap (the top of the strings that is). I'm sure if that were to happen, the stairs won't go anywhere or collapse. I would be tempted though to put screws in an inch or two on the angle; obviously the screws would have to be VERY long to make sure they met the flooring joists. The other thing is, was Marion wearing safety glasses when chipping away at the old mortar... I do hope so? Keep up the good work, you're both doing a fantastic job!
@andymccabe67122 ай бұрын
A couple of cheap angle brackets screwed into the sides of the stringers and the joists would fix them in place in five minutes.....!!

Wow, you are a brave man! You are willing to document yourself, no matter what you do. Listen, I totally get that those stairs are temporary, so that gets you a “free pass” for the most part. But let the record show that this is the worst stair building video on you tube. Even as a temporary stairs, you could have made them better AND made it easier on yourself. So I shall set aside all further criticism and only make one suggestion: add a temporary hand rail to your temporary stairs. And put the hand rail on the wall side so as to not restrict access while carrying materials up & down the stairs.

It's a totally oversized piece of lumber. And it's only slightly damaged for about an inch or so from the top side of the stringer. The screws for the thread supports are not even close to that area. Plus the supports are also resting on the step below. Absolutely no danger at all with that. If there is anything dangerous about the stairs would be the way it's fastened to the landing and/or to the ground below. But unless the bottom part of the stringers starts sliding backwards (which would take a crazy amount of force due to friction) that is also not really a problem.
