    I don’t understand why that second step is a triangle not a parallelogram.

    It sounds like he’s done a solid job of lighting a fire under the council, so good on him I say.

      Better to ask forgiveness rather than permission.

      Edit: how did I get that backwards?

      I want to back this guy for that reason, but also… steps have regulations for a reason. The spacing, relative height, angles, it’s all exceptionally important.

      If anything, this highlights the absurdity that some dude can build this in his free time for next to nothing, while the council takes 20 years and $20k and 20 board meetings.

    This is the kind of national news we need!

    Honestly, if he didn’t make the first 5 steps so inconsistent it wouldn’t have been bad at all.

    I can’t see the handrail being too high in this case (but I’m just another armchair Muppet), it’s just the way the top of the stair is basically a game of hopscotch
