My Weekend Project

[jadabug]

I have been after DH for months to make a couple of set of steps for Jada and Bogie. I have those cheap plastic steps from CVS and one set was falling apart and dangerous.
I took matters into my own hands today and just did it myself. I figured it couldn't be too hard. I have my own jigsaw and power tools just not that good at measuring things out I think they turned out pretty good. They aren't perfect, but they are wood and lots sturdier than the plastic ones. I used scrap lumber that we had, so I was only out my time and sweat if they turned out crappy

I love those!! I just spent $40 on a 3rd set from TJmaxx. But they were needed, so money well spent!

Any ideas on how to make a ramp?

Good job, Michelle! Now they will be safe.

I have no clue on a ramp..but if I thought about it for a while, I am sure I could figure it out I wish I had room for a ramp in our tiny bedroom!!

Nothing like women who own their own Power Tools! Way to go! Fantastic job! Now, send me a set! (JK, Lol) Now make DH cook dinner!

They look perfect. I'm sure Jada and Bogey appreciate the time you put into this for them. They will get many years of use out of these.

Thanks!! Those little plastic steps have always scared me to death..they scoot around on the wood floor too much These are heavy and so much safer.

Oh no! That would not be good! Make him order out! Hehehe! I tell my DH look, if I gotta do the construction around here, somebody else can do the cooking!

I believe you hit on something there Rhonda He knows when I want something done I have little patience..I am OCD when I get something on my mind and he hates little tedious jobs

[navillusc]

Best way to get stuff done that DH promised to do is to do it myself...or at least start the project so he can take over and show me up...lol

I think they came out great! Go girl power!

Yep, I am the same way. I just told him today if he didn't go mow the lawn I was going to use round up and we would have dirt. He knows I will do it.
