Colliemom’s New Steps

I mentioned inMorningCoffe that I was building some new steps from. Y door landing to my deck. Thought I would share the pictures with you if you are interested.

This is after I throw the old ones off and have you have to put the new ones in place.

Pieces are all cut out and have been painted.

Frame work in place

All finished.

When I started this project I cut and measured everything and made sure that it all fit together in the garage. Everything was perfect. But when I started to install them on the deck itself for some reason the bottom frame was out of line. So I had to do some cutting to get things straightened out. My thought is that the actual framing on the landing itself it’s probably not totally square. Now I have to put a second coat of paint over the whole thing and also paint the lower deck and the railings up above. I’m glad this is done. But it should last for a number of years.

You have amazing talent in woodworking! Are you completely self taught? I'd love to do more, but never learned other than being Mel's chief assistant!
