You are just the best. So glad you included your first mistake and correction. I teach high school CAD course and we just covered this and the modeling tools you can use to make sure your stair meet the right requirements. I loved that you pulled out a textbook for help! I can’t wait to show this to my students.

I made quite a big mistake on one of my recent projects. It's nice to see that extremely talented people like yourself make them as well. Nice way to stick through it and good job on the entire project.

Couldn't love that pup more...

Hi from Brasil. Laura proved to be very humble showing her mistake. She could edited it but no. Love her projects.

The new space looks amazing! Can't wait to see what you make in it!

Fail fast and fail cheap. Stuff happens. Coffee helps. That new space is amazing. Also, I took you up in your Skillshare offer a month or so ago. Ended up signing up for a year. A few hours of classes in video editing and my videos have drastically improved. Still a long way to go. Congrats on having the coolest studio on the Internet.

Laura du bist die coolste 38 jährige Holz Designerin, die ich so auf KZfaq gesehen habe. Deine Videos bereiten mir immer wieder sehr viel Freude und ich schaue sie mit voller Begeisterung. Ich finde es toll was du aus Holz und Metall zauberst. Vielen Dank für deine Mühe und die Arbeit die du dir machst um uns das Fußvolk bei Laune zu halten. Viele liebe Grüße Alex !!! P.s deine Lederstiefel sind der Hammer 🔨 ich dachte für einen kurzen Moment das ich einen Cowboy sehe 😁😁😁

Great attitude Laura, that's the only right way to look at things. Failures happen and you always learn from them. Rock on!

Well done Laura, and thank you for showing your problem solving moments. Good coffee = reset button. Cheers.

More natural light. Eye friendly shop. Nice!

Love your videos Laura, your honesty about mistakes , your great enjoyable videos, and finally a woman how can do all that, as Men can not admit mistakes in the natural way you did, makes you real special out there, keep it up Laura

She is just doing her way like Macgyver. It works just fine for her. No need to give her negative comments.

Great your finally In the new workshop 😊 it got a hip art studio vibe about it. I would be tempted to make a slide to get down 😋

Super showing mistakes happen and you learnt from it

Sharing your mistakes shows your integrity and helps us learn not to make the same ones....Good on you Laura! Smudo is awesome too!

Thanks Laura..I got it as an idea of making one in my house. Many thanks from Indonesia

I'm so happy for you and your new workshop. A pleasant staircase to walk is important and especially if you use it daily. Greetings from my channel.😄

Sometimes the failures and solutions are the best part. Great that you didn't pretend it never happened. Stairs are tricky.

Smudo is a good boy... I'm glad he is in your life

Solo necesito esa herramienta para cortar😭😭😭😭. Excelente trabajo!!!!

Love your projects and attitude! Stairs are tough...... my one word of caution is in framing the bird mouth at the top you have reduced the strength of the stringer by about half. Easy to remedy.... just add a support to the bottom of the stringer attached to the underside of the mezzanine. Keep up the wonderful work! Thanks

Great Job but if I could give you a small piece of advice it would be to ALWAYS GLUE AND SCREW your stair treds...this will guarantee that your stairs will not squeak over time...nails have a way of always causing squeaks and lumber as you know expands and contacts with varrying temperature....You did an amazing job and you made it look easy

Not only did you show a way to do (and not to do) a project on my bucket list, but you are supported by a sponsor I am actually interested in. Great stuff!

Love the fact that you learn from the mistakes with that attitude and that alone is the best advice teaching you can give!

The same book "Holztechnik Fachkunde" you can find in my book shelf too! I bought it for 5 Euro - it was one time in use by an other owner, but the content may be still the same... ;-) You are great, you have an emotional fire which we can see, follow and take it as a motivation!

"get a coffee and start fresh" i love that comment!

SEÑORA ES USTED UNA GENIAAAAA 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🧢🧢🧢🧢

4ys later and this video still rocks. Very satisfying to watch. Great skills and great technic. Thank you.

I'm a carpenter joiner and I don't see to much wrong with your stairs. It's a commercial setting. Made from good timbers. okay it's not a traditional method but they work right. Only thing would be screws would be better. Some glue also. 👍

Think of the giant book case you can build with the mistake scraps 😁

I love craftspeople that embrace and teach their mistakes. They're a large part of any craft, and being real helps new folks SO much. (For people that need both comfortable stairs AND to save space - Google "space saving loft stairs". They're steep stairs with alternating treads.)

I hate it when that happens. But by the looks of things you didn't waste much material. Nice job as always Laura. PS. also love you talking in the video.

Great work! I have a question. What book was that? What’s the name of the book?

What a dream of a place for a shop! And your shoes in the beginning are great ;) Could you maybe tell the name of the book @ 2:14?

Great job , I built staircase s very steep due to limited space In a lawyer's office a few years ago, it was my 1st time building stairs, I measured like 10 times, built them in my shop, sanded them nice and stained and finished them at my shop, then disassembled them and reassembled them on site, it took me about a week at my shop, and 1 weekend to install and finish trims and details...staircase still standing 15 years later... I love your videos , great job, I also work alone most of the time, its relaxing ...

This is a good practical stair case for a work space! I’ve been a carpenter for 44 years so I’ve seen quite a few tricks over the years, some of that experience was in various parts of Germany. This started off in Oberstdorf back in 1979, good times. Good stuff Laura!

2:10 name of book, please?

Du bist der Knaller!!!! Hab dich über die Shoji Tür gefunden , jetzt folge ich dir !

Your new workshop looks AMAZING!!! The layout looks super fun + that natural light! Looking forward to seeing more videos in it.

Was ist das für ein Buch? Würde mich sehr interessieren.

1:25 That one must hurt... But it makes the work better :P

Vi un millón de videos, llenos de cálculos y comentarios boludos, y llega está gringa y puff, la escalera más fácil sencilla y funcional, sin vueltas!!! Espectacular!!!!

Good job Laura. I love it when people admit their mistakes and make the necessary changes. Your Chanel is so real

It's cool if you are learning and building random stuff (stairs) but just for other people watching, it is not recommended to build stairs this way. Get your local building code or ask local building authorities. Find out your minimum and maximum rise and run of your stairs. In my local area the code is as follows: Rise = 125mm to 200mm Run = 210mm to 355mm using a general rule of: rise + run should equal between 430mm - 460mm, which also should give a comfortable stair angle close to 30 to 35 degrees. Also, if you do not know what you are doing, please get help or get a professional to do it. Those stairs can be a huge safety hazard: tripping, collapse, etc. Additionally, you also have no handrails or guardrails. Wow. Living life on the edge I guess. Good Luck!

Audio levels suck in this one. The music is loud in all of the videos but this had speech which was quiet in comparison. Adjusting the volume up to hear what you're saying is greeted with the ear shattering music afterwards.

That place is gigantic! Nice job on the stairs. I love that you saw that they were too steep and they ent back and redid it. The dog probably would never have climbed that first set.

I love that you post your vids on Sunday Laura. Keep up the inspiring work.

Not sure how to fan, but I disabled adblock and even clicked on the ads. twice.

The mixing between the music and your talking when you messed up was super painful. Radically different volume levels. You could hurt someone with that kind of soft to instantly loud transition.

Congratulations with your new shop, thank you for sharing your story

I love my Sunday mornings. I wake up, grab a coffee, sit down at the computer and watch your video. Always inspiring and motivating to get my day going. Thanks!

Wow. You have sound problems

Lmaoooo...we cut em in 20 min install in 10

I smell a bunch of exciting videos coming while you build this new shop

I love how you did your staircase we all make mistakes . And we over come them I'm a carpenter by trade and I love building

How to make stairs? One step at a time.

This isn’t how you correctly make stairs!

Love it as always. I'm glad you included your challenge in the video. I like how you made the spacers between the steps. Nice, solid and easy to make once you have the size and angle figured out. I like the look!

Wie cool und ehrlich du den Leuten auch vom ersten Misserfolg berichtest! Und dann in Englisch das Buch mit der deutschen Schrittmaßregel komentierst! Sehr schön dokumentiert 👍

This video should be titled how not to build stairs

8 hours. One entire work day for a single set of rough in stairs... my goodness i hope shes not getting paid by the hour.

Wooow!!! Genial la idea, rápido, fácil y eficiente. Saludos desde La Araucanía, Chile.

What a cool idea to make art of your old workbenches! Love them!

The new workshop looks amazing, Laura! I can barely wait to see how you're going to fill that huge blank canvas with some awesome projects of yours. Cheers, girl!

Always so positive and take-charge. Love your channel.

You are awesome! I love that you left in the mess up, grabbed a coffee and moved on!

Ace video, as always, Laura. I really dig your builds, the aesthetic of the videos and choice of music etc. Looking forward to seeing how you build out this new workshop.

Excelente !!!! Muy simple y practico !!! Felicitaciones...gran trabajo !!!

I love that your dog just imedietly felt comfortable running up the stairs. I worked in a warehouse (many many years ago) and had to do some work on the roof. The stairs from the top floor to the roof were wildly steep, like so steep I felt mildly uncomfortable walking up them. My dog was scared to come up, but I kept coaxing her and after about 30 min she faced her fears and was overjoyed to be on the roof. I helped her come down the first couple times, because it's much harder for a 4 legged animal to descend steep angles than it is for us, but after a while she got the hang of that too.

Laura, ich finde dich unglaublich... unglaublich originell, erfrischend und inspirierend. Und ich fühle mich so so angesprochen.. ich liebe es mir Dinge selbst beizubringen und nun sehe ich endlich eine Frau die genau so " unkonventionell " an das MACHEN geht, wie ich es gern noch mehr würde. Du machst ganz viel Mut und Motivation !! Danke! Liebe Grüße aus Leipzig

best tutorial video , strong clever woman . thanks

Excellent, just what I needed in order to build stairs from the entry pathway down to the front yard.

Soo glad you showed your mistakes and your take on them!

Thanks for posting this video, I followed your steps and it turned out perfect.

You inspire me Laura. Thank you for all that you do.

Genious!!!! I like your work.....thanks for teaching. Saludos desde Argentina!!

Laura every mistake is a lesson learned... now the stair is definitely better!!! Great job!!!

From Russia with love!! Thank you so much!!! You are very cool!!!

The stairs look great, and they are Smudo Approved! :) Stairs are tough to do, so great job. The new shop looks huge, with lots of room for creativity! We're looking forward to your next build.

Trabalho perfeito! Gostei muito da forma que você fez! Parabéns! 😉👍

Many thanks for your smiles and explanations

Hallo Laura ,hab deinen Kanal gerade entdeckt ...ich bin geflasht ....Wahnsinn ... und dabei super lässig !!!

Great video Laura! Exciting seeing the new shop take shape! Smudo says the rain’s coming

Servus Laura, i just found your channel and i‘m blast of what you‘re creating! Thank you for so many insprirations and hours of pure joy! Of course failure comes with that processing, but as you said...if you want to climb up you have to start at the bottom. Also nice to see that you pair practical with technical solutions. The „schrittmaßregel/Treppensteigung“ ...perfect! 😀 As an architect I‘m kinda impressed!

Laura, you are my favorite youtube maker, (sorry diresta, love you as well) Truly an inspiration and may I say a lovely woman also. Thanks for all the great ideas, techniques and joy you bring to youtube and the world. Cheers!

Looks perfect. Thanks for showing

I admire your humility

Everyone makes mistakes, that’s why I don’t start any projects. I do enjoy watching you though. Great videos.👍👍

love the look of the thick steps!

Laura muchas gracias por el video, me sirvio como un buen ejemplo para montar la escalera principal, saludos desde Mexico; ademas tienes una bella sonrisa.

Very good job! Thanks for showing the mistake, great learning tool

That comment about failure just got me. Subscribed for life!! Keep going, fresh and real.

Ohh, I love your new shop. It is just so beautiful, especially the rustical, industrial look! And by the way: don't be afraid of failures. Just think about it again and keep going💪

A new space? Happy don't know the world... but happy happy for you 😁

Nice video. Particularly the unplanned coffee break project reassessment. Stuff happens and you make the best of it. Rock on.

Constantly impressed with both your design/build skills and your video skills.

Failure is but one step closer to success. Great video my dear.

i like that you took the time to reflect on what went wrong and how to improve it!

Thank you for sharing and showing us your error rather than editing it out, it was Great to meet you at Makers Central too 👍😊
