Give a man a fish you feed him for one day,teach him to fish you feed him for life.
Give a man a fish,teach him to fish, provide the line and the hooks and he rips you off,insulsts you, fools around with your daughter,and steals your Boat you cut him up and use his balls for bait. J.

Chris Mon, its a deal over here.
The only thing I have seen close to your stairway was a piece in finehome building years ago where the guy built two plywood walls and then cut the thing out of it.
You got some Talent ol Son. I like your not notching in for the treads this time good show. One thing even tho the treads are thick you might think about adding some steel under them fastened up and side waze to the stringers. Not for strength for keeping movement slowed down.
Dammmm good to meet ya and see your work. J.
I love sitting around with my thumb up my ass waiting on materials ordered 3 weeks ago that were promised to be here TODAY, think I'll go sailing for a few days before I blow a head gasket!!!
finished the inner stair radius railing today should have outer stair rail caps and some stain touch up and done tommorrow, 2morrow, rearange some backround crap clean up, demob and get a ton of good pix
After seeing your curved stairs I am dying to try one for myself. I think I would try it at my house or just a test at my shop before I would tell a customer I could do it.
Thanks for posting all the pics.
