Made another step stool using the same design from a previous step stool
(side template).

This one was for my Mom for Mothers day. She saw the one I made from cherry
and wanted one ever since. I made hers is made from sapele.
I think it is time to retire this design.

If you really need a plan, there's one that's quite similar in a book
called "The Complete Book of Woodworking: Detailed Plans for More Than
40 Fabulous Projects". (Available through Amazon, http://tinyurl.com/ywgymk)
Hhere's a picture of one I built using this plan (my first woodworking
project, actually) - the front stretchers on mine are curved, while
they're more angular in the book, but other than that the design is
very similar to the one in the book.

If you do use plywood for the sides, I'd strongly recommend using
baltic birch instead of the regular home center stuff; mine are edge-
banded on the visible surfaces.
And Stoutman, great job - nice looking stool; I'm sure your mom will
love it!

Thank you.

Not 'til I get a chance to copy it!

Mighty fine ... I really like the departure from the ubiquitous "3/4"
stock"
look of your stools.

Thank you.

Nice Job, I like the cherry one.

Thank you. I like the cherry one more too, but don't tell my Mom.

I intended to make hers from cherry also, but the guy at the lumber yard
talked me into sapele.

Nice job on yours too Andy,
I like the 2 tone look
Is that 2 different wood types or just different stain?

Thanks - it was really a happy accident that it came out looking as
good as it did. I used baltic birch ply for the sides and stretchers,
birch edgebanding, and reclaimed wormy chestnut (lightly stained,
because I didn't know any better at the time) for the steps. Whole
thing is finished with poly gel.
Glad you like it,
Andy

Cool,worked out well.

with out testing on scrap 1st.
wasn't really the look I was after, but it turned out well(enough)

You could probably sell the plans for free. JOAT could be your sales
agent.

Not a bad idea. I could give him 5% of the sales for my free plans. Hmmm.
I might retire sooner than I thought!
