If you're interested in advancing your skills as a stair builder or someone who desperately needs to understand the fundamentals of stair stringer layout, then the advanced methods inside this book, we'll take you to the next level. Master Stair Builder - Greg Vanden Berge will share some of the extraordinary fundamentals as well as advanced techniques, few carpenters in the world are familiar with. This is a one-of-a-kind book and was written in a simple and easy to understand format. There are plenty of illustrations and even my wife, who is extremely skeptical about my other books said this was one of the best books I've written so far. This book was written for carpenters, contractors and even sophisticated do-it-yourselfers. I don't recommend this book to anyone who doesn't understand the fundamentals of stair building.

Second Edition Here's a book for anyone interested in learning more about stair building. Even though there are less than 20 chapters in this book, it's filled with information that can help you build better stairs, in less time and with more confidence. Ask yourself this, do you know how to build every type of stairway? Do you even know which questions to ask the project manager, architect or contractor? If you answered yes and you have built a variety of different stairways and barely had a problem with any of them, then I wouldn't get this book, but if just one of you answered no to at least one of those questions, then go for it. Learn from someone who has built over 1000 stairways. Learn from someone who's made mistakes so you won't have to. It's this simple, if you need to read to succeed and master carpenters you admire and even respect aren't willing to part with their secrets and in some cases are going to take them to their grave, then read this book. Some of these secrets have been passed down from my grandfather to my father and then to me and I'm willing to share them with you, for an extremely small fee that could even be considered a token of your appreciation. Get the book, read it, share it with your fellow carpenters.

Start out by having a look at our video showing operation of The Stairway Valet: http: //www.testrong.com/StairwayValet/assets/video1.html The Stairway Valet is basically a dumbwaiter that carries things up-and-down the stairs for you. The Valet carriage is made of plywood and its tray folds up when not in use. It features a "clothes pole" with a hook at the top on which clothes can be hung and carried up the stairs. The Valet travels up and down the stairway wall guided and supported by an aluminum track secured to the wall. A cable connected to a winch/motor and guided by pulleys raises and lowers the carriage. Switches mounted on the park wall at both the top and bottom of the stairs operate the Valet. It is powered by a "Power Pack" which contains a 12 V battery and a charger to keep it fully charged.The Stairway Valet is primarily intended for use in a basement stairway where most of your "hauling" is done. Think about all the trips you make up and down those stairs carrying laundry baskets, ironed clothes on hangers, food and beverages for the basement refrigerator or freezer, cleaning supplies, tools and many other things. The Valet can be built in a very short time using "off the shelf" parts. Anyone would find the Stairway Valet useful but it's especially helpful for older folks who can still climb stairs okay, but who find it difficult to carry things up and down stairs. The Valet is not difficult to build and this ebook, along with the linked videos, makes it quite simple. In the following pages you will find complete step-by-step instructions, a parts list with pictures of all parts, suggestions on where to purchase them, cost estimates, and a wiring diagram. Total cost is under $400.A special web page is provided so that all URL links in the book can be easily located and clicked.
