  1. how about making the photos on your site enlargable? I’d like to click on them to get more detail.

  2. I had made #8 for a kids toy box for the basement.  It kept the kids area cleaner and when u have company toys r out of site.  

  3. @anonymous – are you on a mobile device or viewing us on a desktop computer?

  4. I like a lot of those, but #10 looks like a nightmare to me.  Is that even up to code?  I don’t see a handrail, and the incline of the steps looks too steep.  I think I would also be annoyed to have people walking on steps attached to my desk if I was trying to work.

  5. @courtney. it’s called an alternating tread stair – the man in the photo isn’t using it correctly. it is steep, but you’re meant to step on alternating heights with each foot (it’s the way we typically walk up a stair anyway) but as the stair has no handrail it’s either 1.) not in the US or 2.) a temporary handrail was put in to get a CO and then removed afterwards.
