Thanks Aaron, I always come away with something from these videos. Since you asked for ideas, something I would like to see in a future video concerns dynamic components. There must be a way to have 2 dynamic components that interact with each other, but I have no idea how to do it. For example, a rack and pinion gear assembly. Let's say the user clicks to make the pinion rotate 15°, the rack should move accordingly, since it is meshed with the pinion. But, how to do it? I can find lots of examples on RUclips to show a single door or window opening, but nothing with 2 or more components interacting with each other. I'm sure it must be possible using native tools, and without too much complexity.
Enjoyed this one, definitely learned some new things. I would like to see a longer video that goes into a more detailed stair build. And of course, more woodworking videos!
Quick, simple modeling, like this, is just to see if code stairs will even fit in this space. (and will I like it if it does) Sketchup excels at this. NOW, with the treads and risers where they have to go, is the time to draw the stringers and such. My first use for Sketchup is Idea bashing then drawing accurately all the detail I need to MAKE what I am drawing. The more accurately I draw the less problems later...
One small quibble…probably better, construction-wise to run the riser-backs to the bottom of each tread so nails or screws (from riser to tread) are in shear, not withdrawal like you modeled (from bottom of tread up into riser). Yes, there will be plenty of construction adhesive to help in either situation.
Excellent video Aaron, as usual. Your easy-going style and self-deprecating humor make you such a great teacher. Keep up the great work!

I always enjoy using the walk tool to climb the stairs.
Thanks Aaron!
That looked WAY too easy ! Considering all that was included in how to do it...deceptively easy
Well done !!!

great video, I use the geometry to solve things all the time, I'm old enough to remember using a ruler and rotating to solve stairs it took hours
7.5 inch riser! That's what we in the industry call a 'tripper'...jk. Nicely done as always Aaron

Thanks for this one.
Nicely done. Code? We don’t need no stinking code!
