    If you drill all the holes through one leg and then use that leg as the pilot holes for all the other legs then all the holes end up the same place on each leg. Then u take any leg and use that to place the holes on the corners of the platforms themselves. That way u can use any leg on any platform. I did it that way to get away from labeling and it worked out great.

    i am a 16 year old owner of a stage production company and I have actually build 2 3/4 thick 4'x8' platforms with 24" legs and that was a year ago and there very wobbly and honestly after watching this video I am going back in summer to cut them in half and have 4 4'x4' platforms and add cross beams to the legs for support.and I am most likely going to make 12 of these 4'x4' platforms for a 12'x8' stage and I will most likely paint them black with rustolium and in the front with stencils spray-paint "STAFF ONLY". Honestly you did a great job and thank you for the enlightenment ,have a great day.

    I really enjoyed watching this video. You are a very precise man in your builds and training. I am going to get more of the clamps to help keep the wood together during assembly. Thanks

    i made it without legs (4x8). I use milk crates underneath. 1 on each corner and 1 under the center. they lock themselves in good enough.

    Super cool!
    I’m working on a portable stage for my kids for them to take to the park. One likes to sing, the other plays guitar, one likes to talk & tell jokes, so a portable stage would be PERFECT!
    This one attaches to a bike and transforms from a sign to a stage. The problem (for now) is. stability. I want to insure its safety Before I go any further. Need some advice on it.

    Any idea what kind of weight this would support. We have a 4500-pound scissor lift we need to be able to use on it so we can reach our lighting grid easily

  • @ArtVandalay666
    @ArtVandalay666 5 років тому +1

    Thanks for the great video. I am definitely gonna take a stab at this. Question--how tall do you think one could reasonably make the legs before stability becomes an issue? I plan on using the area underneath the riser for storage and would like to get an idea of how much I will be able to store under there. Thanks!

      Sorry, missed this. I can not speak to a safe height. Personally, I wouldn't go higher than where you wouldn't be injured if you tripped off. 1 or 2 feet max. I make no warranty as to the safety of this in any way. Please consult a structural engineer.

    Would you recommend using a center joist for 4X6

  • @redwhitephotography5454
    @redwhitephotography5454 5 років тому

    Thanks. I am looking in to something like this for a couch riser -- for 2nd row seating in a home theater. Do you think this would be a good solution?

    • @ronwass
      @ronwass  5 років тому

      For a permanent installation, I would probably want something nailed or screwed to the structure of the room.

    I'm assuming this can be raised higher if needed or would you then have to go to 4 by 4's

    Did you use 5/8 or 3/4 inch plywood? Great video!

    • @ronwass
      @ronwass  5 років тому +1

      3/4 of course. The idea is for sturdyness.

  • @johnwilliams2176

    Actually working on an 8x8 drum riser with 4 4x4 sections when I found your video. Wasn't sure what I was going to do about the legs but I like how you did yours. I want to be 2' high. I'm thinking about 2x6's for the legs so I have a little more meat on either side of the bolts.
    I was thinking about using T nuts for the bolts. Do you think that would be a good or bad idea?

    • @ronwass
      @ronwass  2 роки тому +1

      Anything that weakens the structure is a bad idea. T nuts just don't have the same holding power as bolts.

  • @adamslawson

    the legs need to be able to fold-in. so can be stacked in a car or suv. Need to stack 5 of them

    • @ronwass
      @ronwass  3 роки тому

      As you can see, these legs are not fold-in which would be a bit more hardware, but easily removable, hence the platforms are stackable.

    Hey by the way are you from central Long Island? Your accent sounds like maybe a little bit of a background somewhere along the Nassau/Suffolk border if I had to guess. Cheers.

    How much did this cost? Want to build one for our drums at church.

    • @ronwass
      @ronwass  4 роки тому +2

      This kind of plywood is like $55 a sheet. 2x4s are cheap. The bolts and screws are reasonable.

    what kind of wood did u use?

    • @ronwass

      Plywood, baby!

  • @eshacooper8741
    @eshacooper8741 4 роки тому

    IF YOU WERE MAKING IT 16" TALL WOULD YOU HAVE USED 4X4 FOR THE LEGS?

    • @eshacooper8741
      @eshacooper8741 4 роки тому

      NEVERMIND YOU SHOWED WHAT YOU WOULD DO WITH 24" LEGS. THANKS.

    How heavy is this and how much weight can it support?

  • @EarthtonesCymbals
    @EarthtonesCymbals 2 роки тому

    I bet they are pretty heavy? I'd like something light weight.

    • @ronwass
      @ronwass  2 роки тому +1

      Light weight isn't going to be sturdy, and you want sturdy when you have people standing on them.
