How I built a space-saving FOLDING STAIRWAY in my shop!

Описание: When it came time to build stairs to the attic in my shop, I had a slight problem...if I built a conventional stairway to the attic landing, I used up about 2 1/2 feet of what would've been a drive-through bay in the shop, and if I built it inside the room on the other end of the building, I used up a fair amount of space I had intended for seating at family gatherings. My solution, inspired by Ben, at Woby Design, was a folding stairway. I could build a reasonably wide stairway, and still keep my drive-through bay! Thanks, Ben!
The entire thing is built out of 5 sheets of 3/4" Maple plywood, 5 lbs of screws (Various sizes), 52 3.5" hinges, and about a gallon of glue! No having to sort endlessly through lumber at the store trying to find a straight board with no knots in it!
