Most pizza peels are simple and not eye popping. I hope to change that with this design. Not only does it function as a pizza peel, but it also is visually appealing.

So my wife showed me a picture of a mailbox that she liked, and since our old mailbox was damaged and had to get redone, we decided to just replace it with a new one. I'm not sure if it's a contemporary or modern mailbox, but it's different and not your simple post mailbox like every other YT video shows.

Montessori Bed (house bed) - How To Woodworking
Great idea, but for me, this video was kinda incomplete.
how so? What would you have like to see?
Another tip, it's best to have an air gap in between your metal, insulation or wood/ sheetrock. Having it full of insulation doesn't allow moisture and air to rise as it's heated. You're asking for mold and rot behind that plywood. Hope I'm wrong but i never am
@@Leggobrandon40bang good point. Hopefully I won’t have to deal with mold but I didn’t think of that when I put it up
Another tip, i personally only use pressure treated lumber if it's touching concrete or metal. I would have either built new walls in front of the metal framing or just attach horizontal pressure tested 2 by 4s every 2 ft up and attached to that
Tip. Drill the wood then take a 16 penny nail or a deck screw and punch a indention into the metal 2 by 2 and then put the screw in, either that or predrill ever hole, just don't over torque the screws either way out they will strip easy
Love it man! Is that the garage? Looks awesome
Yes it is! Took a hot minute to get it to where it is. But I’m very happy with it
Your explanation at 10:20 about laying the striners out as a mirror makes this project seem more doable to me now
@@wigidy12 thank you. I try to keep things simple. I get confused easily on complicated projects
Hmmm I finally followed Robert's advice and took woodprix instructions. It's great for beginners, and has some advanced stuff too.
VERY INTERESTING idea to have the GREAT folding stairs actually END INTO a wall!
@@REVNUMANEWBERN yea. That’s true. But it’s a simple side step for me. And I’m the only one that will use them so it was a sacrifice I decided to make.
11:00 WHY do you creators feel the need to use this ANNOYING fill in "music" ??? GEEZZZZ
@@REVNUMANEWBERN it’s part of the algorithm. Having dead space sound leads to lower views. Gotta appease the YT metrics.
Also. It’s part of the “free” music that YT will let us use. I’m cheap and not making money off my videos so I don’t want to pay for better music.
your floor is going to be taller
@@snicks50 I exactly. No more trip hazard
@@DavidWadeDesign no, he means new finished floor will be higher than the existing finished floor that is currently 'level' with the new/raised plywood subfloor.
@@berkut7 yes, that was done intentionally because I put a LVT floating floor on it. I left it higher because I didn't remove the old tile in the rest of the room. it's pretty even when you walk along it. But if it bugs me in the future, I'll rip it all up and do it again and remove the tile under the LVT.
My first thoughts were: Man, this dude is overbuilding the s**t out of that mailbox. But then I came around to a positive mood by the end and was thinking Man! This dude is overbuilding the S**T outta that mailbox! Nice work.
@@coryingman thank you. My wife picked it out so as long as she’s happy with it, I have a warm bed to sleep in. Haha
I like this idea but will you be able to hang things on 1/2" is? Also, I'd like to know how you did on the corners.
Thank you. The 1/2 hold small weigh just fine so far. I hung my stairs from it and I have had 0 issue so far. If I need to hag something heavy I screw a 2x4 to the wall and hang the heavy item off of that. That way the weight is distributed more and holding from a single screw
@@AB_thingsDFW also for the corners I did but joints and picked them together. Then out a 2x4 along the seam to keep them flush together.
@@DavidWadeDesign thanks for the ideas. I'm going to follow your corners tip. Will try to make a video on it
@@AB_thingsDFW please do. Let me know when it’s out and I’ll check it out
Manbun says it's all.
what are the little screws called that are holding the numbers in?
They are offset pegs that came with the numbers. They screw into the numbers then press fit into the wood/wall (or whatever you are pointing the numbers to.
@@DavidWadeDesign Thank you!! Just trying to figure out some options for attaching wood projects. I built a small coffee table recently and used hex socket head cap screws for the legs but i see most people using glue more often than any screws on wood.
@@Awkwave yea. It is a simple design. But it has a wide variety of applications. How does your coffee table look?
What is the tool called you cut the metal with? A mitre bandsaw?
@@FloridaMan.84 a.co/d/5NQcUrp. Here is the Amazon link. Not an affiliate link it’s simply a portable metal bandsaw.
Great job! Blessings!!!
Thank you! You too!
Oh my gosh! I think that’s pretty cool, but I can see some really getting hurt one day.
@@dericktrx7573 hopefully not any time soon anyway
How? A handrail can be added.
@@sjagain it can. But I like the sleek look of it as it is. I’m the only one uses it so if I ever sell my house I’ll add a rail before my property sells
Little dudes come down like "not on Our clock."
Great job, I just subscribed!
Thank you!
GNARLY BRO! Love it.
Thank you
where's the handrail . I'm serious. easy peasy....
I use the wall as the handrail
Id love to see someone smarter than myself re-design the bottom couple steps to change direction for easier access
That would be a good idea…unfortunately I am not that person.
@@DavidWadeDesign What if you made the existing staircase a bit shorter and had it join a landing with any additional steps needed going at a 90* angle from the long run? The short run would fold down from the wall it is running into? Short set goes down first then long run rests on top of it for continuity and less wobble.
@ that’s not a bad idea. I think the main reason I did it this way was because I didn’t want the step elevation to be too steep. If I were to redo it, I’d probably do something like what you suggested
Cool idea, would be very worried about when the wood drys and warps, probably not going to stay flat long.
It’s 3/4” ply wood that is double laminated for thickness. I think it should be fine. Time will tell. If I have to make another staircase video you can come and tell me you told me so.
plywood, flat by design.
.......at a loss for words. This could be a cool idea, but as is, this is incredibly dangerous that it borders on insane. No relief area at the bottom, no railing, no reinforcing support for the stairs, trusting hydraulic arms and hinges to not fail in the event of carrying items to and from the attic area. Building codes are super strict on stairs for a reason. People get hurt on them all the time. Please tear it down and re-do it, but do it right this time to code. It's not worth you or your kids lives.
I like to live dangerously.
Very cool idea! I love how flat it is to the wall but how it firmly comes out with two stringers once extended. How thick was the plywood you used?
I used 3/4” thick plywood that I double laminated together. So the stairs are just about 1 1/2” thick. Same as the stringers.
It’s a cool design but it doesn’t really function in that particular space that well with the way the bottom dies right into the wall. Like I said, the design is solid though and it should work someplace else much better.
Agreed. Needs a landing and a turn for those first two steps.
Yea. I put it there to make it more out of the way. Not realizing it killed the walk-in and walk-out. Oh well. Since I’m the only one to use it, I’ll just have to live with it. But it definitely should be on the other wall to make it easier to use for sure.
@DavidWadeDesign Naaa... the wall at the bottom is just a good brake. It'll stop the momentum of a tumble. Add some padding to the wall, and you're good to go. 😆
How much did it cost you? Where did you buy the things?
@@supremealpha1 the total cost was around $1550. That includes the base. MDF top, screws, glue, laminate top. Everything. The base by itself was only around $900. But I have $300 in shipping to add to that. The base came from Framing technologies. Cam from Black Tail Studio has a link in one of his videos that they will still apply to your order even though his video was posted a couple years ago. Overall great company and I’ll definitely be using them again in the future.
What language is this?
Ignorant English.
stop getting high when you do these videos everything you do is being scrutinized like fooling with your goofy hair all the time check your red eyes a bad sign
Fun fact. I’ve never been high. That’s just my natural personality. :-)
I am sorry, but it is too much work. I'd like to have the components prefabricated, so that I don't need 3 people doing all this work for hours and hours. Plus, the panels will be all measured and tested, so there would be no surprises. If could make what you showed here to work almost as a Lego build, that would have a tremendous value.
Hey, good job and nice video. It would have been nice if you showed the inside of the shed too :)
That is a good idea. When I film a shop tour video, I'll be sure to put some footage of the inside in that video.
Also. On my new video on ductwork and dust collection there is a decent shot of the inside of the shed. If you wanted to check that out.
Holy shit that's a massive pine(?) why would they take it out like that rather than climb it? As a forester I'm sad such a healthy big pine was taken down. (Im not from the states so I can't quite tell what the specific tree is just looks like a type of pine) Did the people who took the tree down have insurance or was it screwed all around? Also that garage took the hit like a champ barely any damage. But I'm assuming this is a case of I wanted a new garage anyway rather than that rickety thing
He should have topped it before cutting it down. I didn’t think it needed to come down because it wasn’t rotten or dying. The company wasn’t licensed or insured. So it’s falling on insurance and they don’t want to help with any of it.
why not just repair it? money to burn. send me some
Atleast he ain't begging like the rest of these utubers
There were too many trusses broken and the walls were out of whack. I had to hire a structural engineer to look at the damage and he even said it wasn’t repairable and had to be torn down.
Great video definitely want to tackle making one for my daughter
Thanks. It was a lot of fun, but drilling all those holes by hand definitely sucked
That is so cool!
Thank you
what are the pegs !?!
Colored acrylic pegs
Awesome work bro!
This was awesome, thanks for sharing. Do you mind linking where to buy the pegs from please, or just the site you bought them from. Thanks so much!
Sorry for the late reply. I don't remember where I got them from exactly, but it was through Alibaba
What kind of lights and how did you install them?
I used cheap amazon special LED light strips
Is the acrylic lexan or plexiglass? What is the purpose of it? Is that needed for the lights? I also noticed you sanded it & I’m curious why? Thank you
To diffuse the light
Fabulous design! Have a question about the holes you drilled. The edges were rounded. What tool did you use to round the hole? Thanks!
He used a router with a round over bit which creates a nice smooth round over to the holes
Yes, I used a 1/8th inch round over router bit
Cool video my man
David, absolutely brilliant! Did you say where you you got the pegs from or how you made them? Guess it's just regular acrylic bar. Would be great to see your youngster enjoying it! Barry, my young lad features in some of my builds! Great to see the western saddle in the shot at the end too! Enjoy your riding!
I ended up buying them from China. The pegs alone were $1000. If I ordered them from the states that price went up to $5000.
How much was everything?
@@hines320 materials were around $1500 for everything. Wood. Pegs. LED lights. Acrylic.
@@DavidWadeDesign thank-you! Thinking about doing this for my son who's Autistic, he saw a huge lite brite and loved it. Thanks for showing hiw to do it!
@@DavidWadeDesign Did you buy longer version and then you cut it?
