Our Off Grid Redwood Deck Gets Stairs!
In this video we get started with stairs for our rear deck on our #strawbalehouse.
First step is to locate and pour a slab on which the stair stringers will sit. Then we get on with the stringers.
Our video ends aburtly because of a collection of circumstances including a hernia, necessary trips out of town, a broken hot water heater which caused a wet mess in our trailer and last but not least, a dental emergency.
It's no fun when your dreams are put on the back burner because life gets in the way.
PAYPAL DONATIONS:
If you would like to help support our build, donations are gladly accepted via PayPal. 100% of all donations are allocated towards our sustainable, straw bale construction. Thank You!
