moved to how to
its better to use just thicker woods then use multiple pieces, its easier and takes away the chance of the wood separating

Yeah its a hell of a lot easier to stack the wood. But it would look nicer putting it all together like brr.

BRR stacks sandwiched plies on top of each other to provide a light, but sturdy stair. Some of their stairs are hollow, and some are stacked pretty much all the way down to the bottom, depending on how old the set is.

Stack. It's so much easyier. Weight- if your making like a 5 stair or lower= stack em. If its 6 or more stair=do the cut but use a thicker peice of wood for the top peice and thin pieces for the rest. Hope it helped!

its not so hard if you have all the right tools......if you have a jigsaw, the right bits of wood, and right nails/scres etc, it can be done.....just take your time and plan it out first....make carboard templates up first though. Smile
