    Awesome stuff man! For your repeated cuts you should try a stop block. You can set up the stop block, cut all of them to one length, then adjust the stop block and do the other cut to save a little time and it would be a tad bit more accurate.

    beautiful job. The supports for handrail what was the spacing measurement? I think it was an overkill, looks like 5 inches apart but looks GREAT! Thumbs up

      4" is code in most places.

      I actually used prefabricated top and bottom rails from Lowe’s.

    Film is too fast to see what you are doing sometimes. We need a step by step explaining it.

    If I'm doing one with balusters, how do I figure the decrease in baluster height? As in how much to take off each one going down?

    Surprised ur inspectors don't make u put forms under ur posts. In mass they would make u put atleast 36 inches of concrete under ground at each post so that over time they don't sink under the weight of the deck. But pretty good idea for a deck ramp 👍

      There were no inspectors involved in the project. I just built this for a family friend. I’m not a contractor nor is this a business of mine. I did use forms everywhere I could that wasn’t on the slab of concrete. The tree made it difficult to dig down in a few places

      I'd bet, your frost line in Mass is a bit lower than where he is anyway.

      How long is the overall ramp? Needs a resting pad if longer than 9 metres.

    How much of a slope did you do? Is it like an inch for every 12 in?
