This Is Why My Stairs Will Never Move

100% unnecessary, strictly for clicks

Home Depot called, they ran out of lumber.

Will this work? No. But was it necessary? Also no.

paving stones move with the frost. Should have added some float capability

Makes no sense unless he is structurally telling someone to lose weight.

Lol ...but in the spring the pavers you just stapled that to will be hanging from it probably at least a few inches off the ground 🤣

Well…..while you’re stabilizing the stairs against an elephant attack, why not ‘plate’ the 2 triangular areas with 3/4 plywood. Only then would I feel the stairs are safe to walk on. 😜😂

Pffft. This guy could have used twice as much lumbar and three times as many fixings.

That is not a good idea. Needs some wiggle. Paving stones frost heave

Could have had the same result with a single 2x4

When are you putting the other 3 stories on top? Could you not get any cheap W-beams?

I think you need a few more fasteners

That'll last until Judgment Day at dawn.

that's just overkill.

No footings??

Proper overkill respect that mate 👌

grok, explain what a frost-line is, and how deep the concrete footers need to be poured in a region that has sub-freezing weather for more than 5 months of the year. Also explain what happens to water that runs underneath that pad, when the water freezes. So the that deck bolted, braced, and literally anchored to the pad, it’s moving whenever and wherever that pad moves.

You used ALL the screws!!🫡👍 Why no glue?

How fat do you intend to get?

I thought he was building a war machine...

That ain’t going anywhere.

400 pound wife?

Well at least until that slab heaves.

frost heave

Are you constructing a staircase for elephants to copulate?

Hourly guy...

God idea to wait for winter to do this

I hope there’s a fire

How heavy is your mother-in-law? Sheesh

The house will fall over before them stairs

Forgot the adhesive.

Until all that treated lumber shrinks

Dude has a dozer he needs to drive down those stairs I guess.
